Abstrakt:	A recent report from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center discusses the use of laparoscopic transverse abdominis plane block (Lap-TAP) in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy and gastrectomy. The study compared Lap-TAP to ultrasound-guided TAP (US-TAP) and found that Lap-TAP was equally effective in pain control and could reduce operation time and cost. The researchers concluded that Lap-TAP is the preferred approach for minimally invasive surgeries, although laparotomy may still be necessary in some cases. This research has been peer-reviewed and provides valuable insights for surgeons performing these procedures. [Extracted from the article]
