Summary

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the analgesic efficacy of the Pectoral Nerve Block (PECS II) and the Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane (SPSIP) Block in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery. The primary outcome is total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours. Secondary outcomes include pain scores (VAS), block performance time, number of needle passes, postoperative recovery quality (QoR-15), time to first analgesic request, and complications (hematoma, pneumothorax, local anesthetic toxicity, vascular puncture, infection).

Conditions

  • Nerve Block

Interventions

PROCEDURE

SPSIP Block

Patients in this group will receive an ultrasound-guided Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane (SPSIP) block with 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride injected into the fascial plane between the serratus posterior superior muscle and the third rib, 30 minutes before surgery.

PROCEDURE

PECS II Block

Patients in this group will receive an ultrasound-guided PECS II block with 30 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine hydrochloride (20 mL between the pectoralis minor and serratus anterior muscles, and 10 mL between the pectoralis major and minor muscles), 30 minutes before breast cancer surgery.
