Summary
Regional anesthesia decreases the need for intravenous analgesia in the peri-operative
period. Erector spinae plane (ESP) and transversus abdominus plane (TAP) blocks are two
common regional anesthesia techniques shown to be effective in open abdominal surgeries. We
aim to compare effectiveness of ESP block with TAP block for peri-operative analgesia in
pediatric open pyeloplasty patients with a flank incision.
