Bilateral Rhomboid Intercostal Block Versus Erector Spinae Plane Block for Perioperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Bilateral Reduction Mammoplasty

Zagazig University·interventional·Posted Jan 26, 2024·Updated Jul 17, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating general anesthesia, Erector spinae plane block, and 2 other interventions for Analgesia. Completed, enrolled 72 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

Bilateral reduction mammoplasty is one of the most commonly performed breast surgery. The Postoperative pain following it should be minimized. Opioid administration for acute pain after reduction mammoplasty surgery has many side effects. Regional block techniques such as paravertebral block and thoracic epidural anesthesia have possible complications and technical difficulties. The new alternative regional techniques such as erector spinae plane block and rhomboid intercostal plane block are clinical trials for providing a safe, easy, and painless anesthetic procedure with adequate postoperative analgesia for a large section of patients undergoing thoracic surgeries.
