Brief Summary
First rib resection surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome is associated with an intense postoperative pain. It leads to significant consumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids, and hospitalization for several days. In our center, first rib resection surgery was usually performed under general anesthesia combined with diffuse local infiltration of the axillary fossa. Erector spinae block is an interfascial block where a local anesthetic is injected between the erector spinae muscle and the transverse process, in order to obtain a multimetameric analgesia. It has now shown its efficacy and its safety in thoracic and abdominal surgeries by decreasing the morphine consumption and pain scores. Since November 2018, this erector spinae block is systematically performed preoperatively for first rib resection in our center, in association with a general anesthesia. Patient satisfaction seems important but remains to be assessed objectively. In a before-after study, our goal is to assess the impact of the use of erector spinae block on postoperative pain in the first rib resection surgery.
