Transversus abdominis plane block or subcutaneous wound infiltration after open radical prostatectomy: a randomized study
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Open radical retropubic prostatectomy (ORRP) is associated with moderate pain. We hypothesized that a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block would reduce post-operative pain, morphine consumption and opioid-related side effects compared with wound infiltration and placebo in this population.
