Summary

Hemorrhoids are commonly observed surgical conditions affecting the anorectal area, characterized by symptoms such as pain, bleeding, and the presence of a protruding mass from the anal opening. Fear of postoperative pain is one of the most important factors for patients to avoid surgical interventions. Postoperative pain is a significant concern, with over 80% of patients encountering moderate to severe pain.

The main aim is to evaluate ESPB from the sacral level would result in effective analgesia following hemorrhoidectomy. It is also aimed if sacral ESPB would reduce the use of additional analgesics after hemorrhoidectomy and increase patient satisfaction. In this prospective, randomized, controlled trial, our main objective was to examine the postoperative analgesic effects of sacral ESPB following hemorrhoidectomy.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Sacral Erector Spinae Plane Block

The transducer will be placed 3-4 cm laterally to the second medial sacral crest in order to visualize the intermediate sacral crest. In the interfascial plane, a total of 20 mL of local anesthetic solution (comprised of 10 mL bupivacaine 0.5%, 5 mL lidocaine 2%, and 5 mL normal saline) will be injected between the erector spinae muscles and the intermediate sacral crest. The same procedure will be performed on the contralateral side.
