Plain-language summary

Patients who have undergone thoracotomy experience severe pain in the postoperative period. This pain leads to many complications. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and Serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) are alternative methods to thoracic epidural block (TEB) that provide analgesia in thoracic pain. The application of both blocks and the nerves they affect are different. The aim of this study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of the combination of ESPB and SAP against ESPB in patients who have undergone thoracotomy
