| Popis: | We present two patients who underwent double mastectomy and breast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap. The goal of this case series was to compare surgeon-provided infiltration block against anesthesiologist-provided regional nerve block, focusing on abdominal analgesia. This case report highlights that pain control for a patient could be successful when done collaboratively. To achieve this, it is important for both the surgical and anesthesia team to discuss the best analgesic plan for the patient while taking into consideration the confidence, experience, and technique that both the surgical and anesthesiology team can offer. |
