Brief Summary

Worldwide, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, and its incidence and mortality rates are expected to increase significantly in the next years. It remains a major health problem. There is a vast area on breast cancer and immunity that still needs to be researched. Do anesthetic techniques and medication preferences effect immune responses? If so how they effect breast cancer outcomes is unclear. On this trial, the investigators are searching anesthetic techniques affect on inflammatory and immune responses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Metabolomic profiling of ESP block for breast cancer surgery

    Metabolomic profiling of 3 groups will be performed with liquid chromatography mass spectrometrt (LCMS) and Quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF).

    24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Defining the change in preoperative (baseline), postoperative hour 24 Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) levels between the morphine group (group M), the ESP block group (group E), and the control group (group c).

    change from baseline VEGF at 24 hours postoperatively

  • Defining the change in preoperative (baseline), postoperative hour 1, postoperative hour 24 cortisol levels between the morphine group (group M), the ESP block group (group E), and the control group (group c).

    change from baseline cortisol up to 24 hours postoperatively

  • Defining the change in preoperative (baseline), postoperative hour 1, postoperative hour 24 C-reactive Protein levels between the morphine group (group M), the ESP block group (group E), and the control group (group c).

    change from baseline CRP up to 24 hours postoperatively

  • Defining analgesic effects between the morphine group (group M), the ESP block group (group E), and the control group (group c) on patients who had breast cancer surgery.

    End of surgery up to 24 hours postoperatively

  • Tramadol consumption between the ESP block group and the control group

    End of surgery up to 24 hours postoperatively

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

The investigators will evaluate unilateral breast cancer patients from Ankara Dr. Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Oncology Train and Research Hospital who will undergo Mastectomy procedure. The investigators will exclude patients who no longer want to participate at any part of the trial. A total of 90 patients' data will be collected.

You may qualify if:

  • Should be female
  • Should be between 18-65 years old
  • Diagnosed with unilateral primary breast cancer
  • Are decided to have mastectomy surgery
  • Stage 1-2 breast cancer (T0-1-2, N0-1, M0)

You may not qualify if:

  • Being allergic to the anesthetics
  • Previously had breast operation other than diagnostic biopsy
  • Presence of a malignancy history on the other breast
  • Diagnosed with Inflammatory breast cancer
  • Having a risk score of The American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) risk score 3 and above
  • Contraindications for regional block(Allergies for local anesthetics, Anatomic application difficulties, Coagulopathies)
  • Hormone usage
  • NRS score greater than 3 before the operation
  • Opioid or steroid usage before the operation
  • Rheumatologic history
  • Sickness or drug usage that might cause immunosuppression
