- Lead Sponsor
- Nazmy Edward Seif
- Brief Summary
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is considered to be the first choice and a more conservative procedure than open stone surgery. Not only postoperative pain related to dilatation of the renal capsule and parenchymal tract, but also patient's discomfort \& nephrostomy tube-related stress are reported to delay recovery time and increase the complication rates. This study is designed to provide postoperative analgesia by using ultrasound-guided continuous Quadratus Lumborum Block (QLB) III in patients undergoing PCNL and to assess pain scores \& side effects with less opioids consumption.
