Analgesic effects and distribution of cutaneous sensory blockade of quadratus lumborum block type 2 and posterior transversus abdominis plane block: An observational comparative study.

Abstract

Posterior transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) and quadratus lumborum block (QLB) have been developed for postoperative pain control after lower abdominal surgery. However, there is still a paucity of data regarding their effects. This prospective study observed their analgesic effects and the distribution of cutaneous sensory blockade in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.
