Summary

Patients will be assigned randomly to two groups (30 subjects each) to be anesthetized. The study drug will be delivered in opaque bags labeled "study drug" and 60 patients will be allocated in two groups (of 30 patients each) to receive the irrigation at the end of surgery after dissection; irrigation analgesia by 5 ml bupivacaine 0.50% plus 20 ml normal saline (Group N) or 5 ml bupivacaine 0.50% plus 1 mg/kg ketamine (Group K). The volume of irrigation in group K is completed by normal saline to reach a total of 25 ml.
