Case Reports[Do we still need central blocks while we have erector spinae plane block? Case of 2.5 month old infant].
Erector spinae plane block is gaining popularity both for its ease of application and as its comparable effect on postoperative analgesia with central regional techniques like paravertebral block or epidural anesthesia. Its use for many indications has been reported in the literature for pediatric patients. ⋯ No complication was seen during both surgery and follow up period. Erector spinae plane block with the combination of paracetamol was adequate for pain relief.

Ultrasound-Guided Pectoral Nerve Block I and Serratus-Intercostal Plane Block Alleviate Postoperative Pain in Patients Undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy.
Simultaneous application of pectoral nerve block and serratus-intercostal plane block (SPB) is one of the most desirable multimodal analgesic strategies, with wide implementation of the enhanced recovery after surgery pathway for modified radical mastectomy (MRM). ⋯ Pectoral nerve block, serratus-intercostal plane block, postoperative analgesia, modified radical mastectomy.

The ultrasound-guided block of the axillary nerve may be complicated in cases in which the posterior circumflex humeral artery (PCHA) follows an abnormal course. ⋯ Block of axillary nerve, ultrasound-guided block, posterior circumflex humeral artery, interfascial injection.

Analgesic effect of the bi-level injection erector spinae plane block after breast surgery: A randomized controlled trial.
Due to the complex breast innervation, postoperative analgesia after breast surgery is a challenge for the anesthesiologists. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a newly defined promising technique for this purpose. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of the ultrasound-guided ESPB in breast surgery, monitoring its effect on the postoperative opioid consumption. ⋯ Our study has shown that a significant opioid-sparing analgesic effect in patients undergoing breast surgery could be achieved with a US-guided bi-level ESP block.
