CommentCaudal analgesia versus abdominal wall blocks for pediatric genitourinary surgery: systematic review and meta-analysis.
Caudal block is a well-established technique for providing perioperative analgesia in pediatric genitourinary surgery, but abdominal wall blocks such as ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric (II-IH) and transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block are increasingly being used. ⋯ This meta-analysis was limited by unclear risk of selection and performance biases and significant heterogeneity. In summary, II-IH and TAP block are a non-invasive and reasonable alternative to caudal analgesia in pediatric genitourinary surgery.
