Serratus Anterior Block for Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
Ultrasound-guided SAPB is a facial plane block which maintained analgesia with blockade of lateral branches of intercostal nerves at above or below serratus plane muscle. There are few cases and studies in the literature reporting successful analgesia provided by SAPB in VATS operations. The serratus plane block is used in our clinic for postoperative analgesia in VATS operations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative pain scores and use of analgesia in patients performed with the serratus plane block in VATS operations in a 1-year period.
