Quadratus Lumborum Block with Laparoscopic Assisted Catheter Placement Technique in Donor Nephrectomy: A Preliminary Report
2022, Transplantation ProceedingsCitation Excerpt :They reported maximum static Visual Analog Scale score on postoperative day 1 as 3 with a median value of 1.8. None of their patients required any rescue analgesics and experienced a complication [15]. A limited number of the patients can be considered as a limitation for this study in which we conducted to describe a new approach.
Posteromedial quadratus lumborum block versus transversus abdominal plane block for postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic colorectal surgery: A randomized controlled trial
2020, Journal of Clinical AnesthesiaCitation Excerpt :Our results showed that the pre-operative ultrasound-guided posteromedial QL block significantly lowered postoperative morphine consumption in the first 24 h postoperatively and decreased pain intensity at least from 8 to 24 h in the setting of multimodal analgesia, compared with a pre-operative lateral TAP block, in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Available data regarding QL block application for surgery involving both the upper and lower abdomen are from case reports, case series, and small studies [14–18]. The results of our study were consistent with the available limited data.

2018, Journal of Clinical AnesthesiaCitation Excerpt :The local anesthetic can extend into the paravertebral space providing effective somatic and visceral pain relief [72]. Several reports have described various techniques of performing the block such as the Sindwani technique for laparoscopic nephrectomy [73], the anterior sub-costal method for lower abdominal surgery [74], the ‘Gaurav-Aditi’ technique [75], the paramedian sagittal oblique approach [76], transmuscular posterior approach [77], continuous analgesia via catheter for open nephrectomy [78] and lumbar spinal fusion [79,80]. Ishio et al. compared bilateral ultrasound-guided posterior quadratus lamborum (UG-QLB) blocks (20 mL of 0.375% ropivacaine) to normal saline in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery under general anesthesia [81].
