Summary

Perioperative analgesia for surgery in carcinoma breast utilizes significant quantities of opioids as compared to cosmetic breast surgeries. Regional anesthesia reduces the need for perioperative opioids and thus may improve the outcome. The investigators decided to perform the modified pectoral nerve block ( Pec II) under vision after resection of tumor, without ultrasound and compare the postoperative analgesic and opioid sparing effects of the nerve block with ultrasound guided modified pectoral nerve block (Pec) in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy.

Conditions

  • Postmastectomy Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Direct pecs block

Patients will receive direct PECS block by surgeon after closure of pectoralis muscle under direct vision and before skin closure. All patients will receive the same general anaesthetic technique: In the form of iv induction by propofol 2mg /kg ,fentanyl 2 mic/ kg and intubation will be facilitated by atracurium 0.5 mg/kg. Anaesthesia will be maintained by isoflurane 1.5 MAC and incremental doses of atracurium 0.15 mg/kg every 20 min. At the end of surgery neuromuscular blocker reversed by neostigmine 50 micg/kg + atropine 20 micg /kg i.v.

PROCEDURE

Ultrasound guided pecs block

Patients will receive ultrasound guided pecs block after induction and before skin incision. All patients will receive the same general anaesthetic technique: In the form of iv induction by propofol 2mg /kg ,fentanyl 2 mic/ kg and intubation will be facilitated by atracurium 0.5 mg/kg. Anaesthesia will be maintained by isoflurane 1.5 MAC and incremental doses of atracurium 0.15 mg/kg every 20 min. At the end of surgery neuromuscular blocker reversed by neostigmine 50 micg/kg + atropine 20 micg /kg i.v.

DRUG

general anaesthetic technique only

All patients will receive the same general anaesthetic technique: In the form of iv induction by propofol 2mg /kg ,fentanyl 2 mic/ kg and intubation will be facilitated by atracurium 0.5 mg/kg. Anaesthesia will be maintained by isoflurane 1.5 MAC and incremental doses of atracurium 0.15 mg/kg every 20 min. At the end of surgery neuromuscular blocker reversed by neostigmine 50 micg/kg + atropine 20 micg /kg i.v.
