Ultrasound‐guided fascial plane blocks of the chest wall are increasingly popular
alternatives to established techniques such as thoracic epidural or paravertebral blockade …

A multitude of thoracic wall blocks have been described, including parasternal-intercostal
plane, Pecs I and II, serratus anterior plane, paraspinal-intercostal plane, erector spinae …

Although different injection locations for retrolaminar and erector spinae plane blocks have
been described, the two procedures have a similar anatomical basis. In this cadaveric study …

Retrolaminar block (RLB) and erector spinae plane block (ESPB) are alternative
approaches to paravertebral block (PVB) and are advantageous in that they are easier and …

Various techniques for regional anesthesia and analgesia of the thorax are currently being
used in clinical practice. A recent international consensus has anatomically classified …

Postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be severe. Despite multimodal
analgesia regimes, administration of high doses of opioids is often necessary. This can …

Purpose Retrolaminar block (RLB) is a thoracic truncal block that can produce analgesia for
the thoracic and abdominal wall. However, the characteristics of RLB are not well known …

Purpose The ultrasound-guided retrolaminar block is one of the newer and simpler
alternatives to the traditional, often technically challenging, paravertebral (PV) block. Its …

Background The thoracic retrolaminar block (TRLB) is a relatively new regional analgesia
technique that can be used as an alternative to the thoracic paravertebral block. This study …
