pain
From the data obtained by our randomized study, we can confirm, as already underlined by the existing literature, that the TPV and ESP blocks used for radical mastectomy were absolutely effective, and very similar in the management of intra- and post-operative pain, in intra- and post-operative opioid consumption and length of stay.It would be desirable to have a randomized trial comparing the TPV, ESP and PECS blocks, the most commonly used regional anesthesia techniques in major breast surgery.
