Retraction Of Publication
Retraction Note: Obturator nerve block transurethral surgery for bladder cancer: comparison of inguinal and intravesical approaches: prospective randomized trial.
The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article [1] because it shows significant overlap with a previously published article by Pladzyk et al. [2].

Observational Study
Feasibility of laryngeal mask anesthesia combined with nerve block in adult patients undergoing internal fixation of rib fractures: a prospective observational study.
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is occasionally used in internal fixation of rib fractures. We evaluated the feasibility of general anesthesia with an LMA associated to a thoracic paravertebral block (TPB) and/or an erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for internal fixation of rib fractures. ⋯ The technique of laryngeal mask anesthesia combined with a nerve block was feasible for internal fixation of rib fractures.

Comparative Study
Femoral nerve block vs adductor canal block after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction under general anesthesia: A prospective randomized trial protocol.
Femoral nerve block (FNB) is considered the preferred analgesia after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), but leads to weakness in the quadriceps muscles. Adductor canal block (ACB) is a new sensory block technique that effectively relieves postoperative pain while preserving quadriceps strength. The purpose of our study was to compare the efficacy of FNB vs ACB for pain control after ACLR. ⋯ This clinical trial might provide some insights to estimate and compare the safety and efficacy of ACB vs FNB following ACLR.
