Brief Summary

Modified radical mastectomy is one of the commonly performed breast surgery. Postoperative pain following mastectomy should be minimised, as in a number of women it may chronically persist for months in the form of postmastectomy pain syndrome. Morphine administration for acute pain after mastectomy surgery has many side effects. Regional block techniques as paravertebral block and thoracic epidural anathesia has possible complications and technical difficulties. The new alternative regional techniques such as erector spinae plane block and serratus anterior plane block are clinical trials for providing a safe, easy and painless anesthetic procedure with good hemodynamic and recovery profile with adequate perioperative analgesia for a large section of patients undergoing mastectomy operation in order to reduce opiods consumption and subsequently avoid opiod-related adverse effects.

Study Arms (3)

Erector Spinae Plane Block

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patient place in sitting position. Type of needle Using 22-gauge spinal needle 10 cm Linear ultrasound probe is placed in a longitudinal parasagittal orientation 3 cm lateral to the T5 spinous process. The erector spinae muscle is identified superficial to the tip of The T5 transverse process. Needle insertion The needle is inserted in- plane superior to inferior approach. The tip of the needle is placed into the fascial plane on the deep aspect of erector spinae muscle. The location of the needle tip is confirmed by visible normal saline fluid spread separating erector spinae muscle off the bony shadow of the transverse process on ultrasonographic imaging . Local anesthetic and volume Injection of 20 ml of bupivacaine 0.25 %.

Procedure: Erector Spinae Plane Block

Serratus Anterior Plane Block:

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patient lies supine with placing the ipsi-lateral upper limb in abduction at 90° positio Using 22-gauge spinal needle 10 cm length. After skin sterilization, Ultrasound device with high frequency \[9-12\] and superficial linear probe that is first placed inferior to the middle of the clavicle and moved laterally and downward to locate the 1st rib where pectoralis major and pectoralis minor muscles are identified at this US window. The US probe is moved toward axilla till serratus anterior muscle is identified above 2nd, 3rd and 4th ribs. The transducer is held at a slightly oblique angle at the level of the 4th and 5th rib, with the upper edge supero-anterior and the lower edge infero-anterior. Needle insertion After infiltration of the skin at puncture site with 3 ml of lidocaine 1%, the needle is inserted inplane between the anterior serratus and the latissimus dorsi muscle on the mid-axillary line. Injection of 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine.

Procedure: Serratus Anterior Plane Block
