| Popis: | Background/Aim: Post-surgical pain is a major factor affecting the quality of life of patients. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of ilioinguinal block on acute and chronic neuropathic pain after inguinal hernia surgery with spinal anesthesia.Methods: This prospective cohort study included sixty ASA I-III patients aged 18-65 years, who underwent a unilateral inguinal hernia operation. The patients were divided into two groups: Those who received spinal block only (Group 1, n=30), and those who received spinal and ultrasound-guided ilioinguinal nerve block (Group 2, n=30). The perioperative and postoperative complications, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores on rest and Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (LANSS) scores at the postoperative 2nd, 6th, 12th, and 24th hours, and in the 3rd and 6th months were noted.Results: No significant difference was observed in the time of first analgesic administration among the groups, but tramadol use significantly reduced in Group 2 (P=0.019). Time until mobilization and discharge was significantly shorter among the Group 2 patients (P |
