Effect of Laryngeal Mask Airway on Image Quality in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is highly sensitive to motion, resulting in artifacts and lowering image quality. Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) provides numerous advantages over endotracheal tubes as it reduces laryngospasm, coughing, and the risk of postoperative desaturation.

Objectives: We aimed to compare LMA with oral airway for airway management during brain MRI in terms of reducing motion artifacts, which can improve image quality.

Serratus Anterior Plane Block and Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Thoracic Epidural Analgesia for Perioperative Thoracotomy Pain Control: A Randomized Controlled Study.

Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of erector spinae plane block and serratus anterior plane block versus thoracic epidural in perioperative pain control for patients with cancer undergoing lung surgeries.

Design: Single blinded, randomized, controlled trial.

Setting: The study was carried out at the National Cancer Institute in Cairo, Egypt.

Perioperative Analgesic Modalities for Breast Cancer Surgeries: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.

Purpose: Various analgesic modalities are adopted for perioperative analgesia in breast cancer surgeries. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of intravenous morphine versus serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in breast cancer surgeries.

Patients And Methods: Seventy-five breast cancer patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy from January 2020 to June 2020 were randomly allocated into 3 groups; the morphine group received morphine 0.
