Summary

There is a complex innervation of the testis and spermatic canal, and many different regional analgesia methods can be used for pain occurring during and after undescended testicular surgery. Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) can be count as the one of the primary method to manage the pain.

In this study, our primary aim will be to compare the effects of lateral and posterior QLB application on perioperative and postoperative pain and analgesic use in pediatric patients who will undergo unilateral elective undescended testicular surgery. Our secondary aim will be to compare patient and family satisfaction and complications.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Lateral Quadratus Lumborum block

Local anesthetic may spread to the T6-L1 spinal nerves and paravertebral area by spreading through the lateral QLB to the transversus abdominis plane, and posteriorly via the anterior thoracolumbar fascia.

PROCEDURE

Posterior Quadratus Lumborum Block

In posterior QLB, the local anesthetic can spread on the anterior and lateral cutaneous branches of T4-L1 spinal nerves by administration of the agent to the lateral interfascial triangle.
