Overview
Brief Summary
This study compares the effectiveness of two techniques for performing transversus abdominis plane block in patient undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomy. One group will receive the block using laparoscopic assistance while other group will receive it under ultrasound guidance. The aim is to assess which technique provides better post operative pain relief. The study will evaluate pain score, duration of pain relief, amount of rescue pain medication used, and time taken to perform the block. The finding may help determine if laparoscopic assisted technique is suitable alternative to ultrasound guided method in clinical practice.
