    Spread of injectate after ultrasound-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block: a cadaveric study

    ANAESTHESIA, Issue 7 2009
    M. J. Barrington
    Summary Ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block can be performed using a subcostal technique. This technique was simulated using dye injection in cadavers in order to determine segmental nerve involvement and spread of injectate using either single or multiple-injection techniques. Dye most commonly spread to affect T9 and T10 nerves with the single injection technique and T9, T10 and T11 with multiple injections. The median (IQR [range]) spread of dye was 60 (36,63 [32,78]) cm2 using the single-injection technique and 90 (85,96 [72,136]) cm2, in the multiple-injection technique, and this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.003). These results indicate that ultrasound-guided subcostal TAP block will involve nerve roots T9, T10 and T11 and that a multiple-injection technique may block more segmental nerves and increase spread of injectate.

    Trunk blocks for abdominal surgery

    ANAESTHESIA, Issue 2010
    O. Finnerty
    Summary In this review, we discuss the central non-neuraxial regional anaesthesia blocks of the abdomen, including intercostal and intrapleural blocks, rectus sheath and ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric blocks, transversus abdominis plane blocks and paravertebral blocks. [source]
