Thoracic surgery is associated with significant postoperative pain, which can hinder recovery and elevate morbidity risks. Traditionally, epidural anesthesia has been the cornerstone for pain management, but its drawbacks including technical challenges, side effects, and complications necessitate exploring alternative methods. This narrative review examined recent advances in perioperative analgesic strategies in thoracic surgery, focusing on regional anesthetic techniques like paravertebral blocks (PVBs), erector spinae plane blocks (ESPBs), intercostal blocks, and serratus anterior blocks.

Ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, exhibits moderate antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as potent analgesic effects. It is widely used in clinical practice for pain relief in cases of mild and severe pain such as postoperative pain, fractures, sprains, toothaches and cancer pain. Due to its relatively short half-life, patients experiencing pain often need frequent injections or oral medications, leading to poor patient compliance.
