Serratus Posterior Superior vs Erector Spinae Plane Block for Breast Surgery
Sponsor: Sakarya University
Summary
Postoperative pain after mastectomy remains a significant clinical problem that may impair patient comfort and delay early rehabilitation, potentially affecting functional recovery. Various analgesic techniques are used to manage postoperative pain. This study aims to compare serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block and erector spinae plane block, which are routinely used in our clinic for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing mastectomy, in terms of ease of application and patient comfort.

Interventions
Serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block
Participants in this group will receive an ultrasound-guided serratus posterior superior intercostal plane (SPSIP) block for postoperative analgesia following mastectomy. The block will be performed under standardized conditions prior to surgery according to the study protocol.
Erector Spinae Plane Block
Participants in this group will receive an ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block for postoperative analgesia following mastectomy. The block will be performed under standardized conditions prior to surgery according to the study protocol.
