Summary

This study investigate the effect of pre-operative ultrasound guided stellate ganglion block with local anesthetic on the frequency of neuropathic pain syndromes in the first 6-month post cancer breast surgeries with axillary dissection.

PROCEDURE

Stellate Ganglion Block

Using US with a linear array transduce, subfascial-C6- Stellate Ganglion Block. Patients will be supine with the neck slightly hyper- extended. After aseptic preparation of the skin, the transducer is placed on the neck to enable cross sectional visualization of anatomical structures at the level of C6. The carotid artery, internal jugular vein, thyroid gland, trachea, longus colli covered with the prevertebral fascia, root of C6, and transverse process of C6 are all visualized. The transducer will then gently be pressed between the carotid artery and trachea to retract the carotid artery laterally and to position the transducer close to the longus colli. A 1.0-inch, 25-gauge long-bevel needle were paratracheal inserted toward the middle of the longus colli. The endpoint for injection were the ultrasound image demonstrating the tip of needle penetrating the prevertebral fascia in the longus colli. After negative aspiration, 5 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine was injected

DRUG

Multimodal Analgesia

Multimodal analgesia in the form of administering of IV paracetamol 1000 mg one hour prior to start of surgery in combination 30 mg ketorolac and Single preoperative 0.1 mg/kg dose dexamethasone has a combined action, anti-emetic and provides enhanced analgesia, with intra-operative fast acting opioid analgesics, Fentanyl 2 mic/kg
