Comparative Study
[Analgesic alternatives for the control of postoperatory pain in radical mastectomy].
The purpose of preventive analgesia based on regional blocks with local anesthetics is to avoid sharp and hard-to-control pain in the anterior side of thorax and axilla secondary to radical mastectomy. ⋯ Preventive analgesia by direct transoperational block on nerves turned out to be an effective alternative with low level of systemic morbidity, which must be considered to prevent moderate and severe pain syndromes that are difficult to control in thoracic oncological surgery.
