AbstractEfficient pain management is essential for postoperative rehabilitation in patients undergoing a tumor resection with an immediate reconstructive surgery. Ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block has been described for abdominal or hip surgery, but not for concomitant surgery in the abdomen and the thigh. The paraspinous transmuscular approach has easy landmarks to perform this block. We present a case of a patient undergoing a resection of a sarcoma in the lower limb with an immediate reconstruction with a pedicled vertical designed deep inferior epigastric perforator flap, in whom a successful paraspinous transmuscular quadratus lumborum block for postoperative analgesia was performed.Copyright © 2021 International Anesthesia Research Society.
