The effectiveness of the erector spinae plane block using methylprednisolone and bupivacaine in post-herpetic neuralgia: Case series.

Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most common chronic complication of herpes zoster and the most common pain syndrome associated with infections. There are medical and interventional treatment options in PHN, and some patients may be resistant to the preferred medical treatments. This situation negatively affects the quality of life of the patient.

Analgesic effect of erector spinae plane block after cesarean section: A randomized controlled trial.

Background: Ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block is also a technique for providing analgesia after a cesarean section.

Aim: We hypothesized that bilateral erector spinae plane block applied from the transverse process of T9 who underwent elective cesarean section could provide effective postoperative analgesia.

Patients And Methods: Fifty parturients who were scheduled to undergo elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were included in the study.

Superficial Cervical Plexus Block for Retroauricular Mass Excision in a Patient with High Risk of General Anaesthesia: A Case Report.

The surgical procedure of lipomas is performed under local, regional, or general anaesthesia depending on the location, number, and size of the lipoma. Anaesthesia can be achieved with a superficial cervical plexus block in the short-term surgery of soft tissue lesions in the dermatome areas of the lesser occipital nerve and great auricular nerve. In this article, we presented a high-risk patient with comorbid diseases and difficult airway who underwent superficial cervical plexus block for retro-auricular lipoma excision.

The Effect of Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum Block on Postoperative Opioid Consumption in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy: A Randomized Controlled Study.

Background This study aimed to investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (QLB) on postoperative opioid consumption in patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Methodology A total of 40 patients aged between 18 and 60 who were classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists status I-II and scheduled for unilateral PCNL were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in Group QLB (n = 20) received a single-shot QLB with 20 mL of 0.
