Summary

This study will be conducted on 50 patients of ASA grade I and II aged from 25 to 55 years and presented for laparoscopic hysterectomy. Patients will be divided into two equal groups; group A control group for conventional epidural technique(n=25) and group B for 25G dural puncture epidural with 25G pencil point Whitacre spinal needle (n=25). Randomization will be done using computer generated number and concealed using sequentially numbered, sealed opaque envelope.
