What this Trial Is About

Inguinal hernia is one of the most common surgical pathologies in children, and the minimally invasive percutaneous internal ring suturing (PIRS) technique is widely preferred. By providing effective pain control, nerve blocks reduce postoperative opioid requirements, thereby minimising opioid-related adverse effects and lowering the risk of pulmonary and cardiovascular complications. This study aims to compare the postoperative analgesic effects of rectus sheath block and caudal epidural block in pediatric patients undergoing PIRS.
