Description
Abstract
Paravertabral blocks (PVB) are in use to adequately manage pain arising from a variety of operations on the
thorax, abdomen or pelvis. PVB is straightforward, efficacious in operations performed. This study was
undertaken to evaluate how efficacious ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block is when used in patients
undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). In this study we have compared two groups of PCNL surgery
comprising 125 patients each, one with TPVB and one without TPVB. TPVB is effective modality in controlling
early postoperative pain after PCNL surgery. However there is no effect in late postoperative pain control after
PCNL surgery with TPVB.
