Study groupQuadratus lumborum blockpatients receiving general anesthesia with propofol, fentanyl and cisatracurium for induction and sevoflurane, fentanyl and cisatracurium for maintaining anesthesia. Patients receiving postoperative multimodal intravenous analgesia with paracetamol, ketoprofen, tramadol, and trimeperidine. In this group, after induction of anesthesia before the operation, bilateral blockade of the square dorsi muscle is performed under ultrasound guidance using 20 ml of a solution of levobupivacaine 2.5 mg / ml.
