Brief Summary
Transversus abdominis plane block (TAP block) is a new regional block for abdominal wall.It had been reported the effect of post-operative pain control in minor abdominal surgery, such as inguinal hernia repair and appendectomy. On the other hand, because of the accurate of the pre-operative images, the minimal laparotomy for colon cancer was accomplished. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect, such as analgesic effect, hemodynamic stability, and post-operative morphine consumption, of TAP block in minimal laparotomy.
