AbstractVideo-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is currently used for the repair of pectus excavatum. Analgesia after thoracic surgery can be provided with nerve blocks, intravenous drugs, or neuraxial techniques. Serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) is a novel interfascial plane block and it is performed between the serratus posterior superior muscle and the intercostal muscles at the level of the second and third ribs. In this case, we present our successful analgesic experience with SPSIPB in a patient who underwent minimally invasive pectus excavatum repair with a VATS technique.Copyright © 2024 International Anesthesia Research Society.
