What this Trial Is About
Transversalis Fascia Plane Block (TFPB) is a trunk block that blocks the T12- L2 spinal nerves by injection of local anesthetic between the transversus abdominis muscle and transversalis fascia on the lateral abdominal wall. The block's positive effects on postoperative analgesia have been shown in many abdominal surgeries, including open-technique inguinal hernia repair. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of ultrasound (US) guided TFPB on postoperative pain control for postoperative analgesia management after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.
