Study Design: This was a narrative review.
Objective: The objective of this review was to summarize the current evidence and knowledge gaps regarding anesthesia and pain management for scoliosis surgery, including multimodal analgesia, and identify the best anesthetic approach to scoliosis surgery that ensures patient safety and pain relief even in the postoperative period, with minimal influence on SSEP monitoring.
Summary Of Background Data: Spinal surgeries and fusions for scoliosis are associated with high pain levels.

Introduction Effective postoperative analgesia following lower segment cesarean section (LSCS) is crucial for promoting surgical recovery and fostering maternal-neonatal bonding. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of two IV dexamethasone doses (8 mg and 4 mg) in managing postoperative pain in LSCS patients. The objective was to assess whether the 4 mg dose provides comparable pain relief to the 8 mg dose, with the goal of identifying the optimal dosage for effective pain management with minimal side effects.

There are several elements in an effective multimodal protocol, including oral medications, periarticular injection, regional nerve blocks, and spinal and general anesthesia. Many nonopioid medications are often used, such as acetaminophen and NSAIDs.

In clinics, physical injuries to the spinal cord cause a temporary motor areflexia below lesion, known as spinal shock. This topic is still underexplored due to the lack of preclinical spinal cord injury (SCI) models that do not use anesthesia, which would affect spinal excitability. Our innovative design considered a custom-made micro impactor that provides localized and calibrated strikes to the ventral surface of the thoracic spinal cord of the entire CNS isolated from neonatal rats.

Lichen planus is an inflammatory disease that affects the skin and mucous membranes, and although rare, it can manifest in the vulvar region. Vulvar lichen planus can occur in women of reproductive age and may cause vulvar adhesion, potentially complicating examinations and delivery during pregnancy. We report a case in which a pregnant woman with vulvar adhesion due to vulvar lichen planus successfully delivered vaginally following labiaplasty.
