•Patients referred for anatomical lung resection (pneumonectomy, (bi)lobectomy or segmentectomy) with the intention of performing it by VATS or RATS are eligible for the trial. Adult patients older than 18 years who are able to give informed consent and fill out questionnaires in Dutch.
•Are the trial subjects under 18? no
•Number of subjects for this age range:
•F.1\.2 Adults (18\-64 years) yes
•F.1\.2\.1 Number of subjects for this age range 400
•F.1\.3 Elderly (\>\=65 years) yes
•F.1\.3\.1 Number of subjects for this age range 171

•Patients with contra\-indications for TEA or PVB (infection at skin site, increased intracranial pressure, non\-correctable coagulopathy, sepsis and mechanical spine obstruction) or allergic reactions to local anaesthetics will be excluded. Patients chronically using opioids for reasons not related to the operation will be excluded from the study since postoperative baseline opioid requirement will be higher and TEA remains the preferred technique for these patients. If, prior to the procedure, catheter placement during TEA is unsuccessful, a continuous PVB will be given during the procedure, and, if catheter placement during PVB is unsuccessful, a single shot multilevel ICNB will be used. Non\-inferiority will be analysed based on intention\-to\-treat, as well as per\-protocol analysis.
•In case the lung surgeon estimates the operation to be performed through a thoracotomy technique instead of a VATS the patient will be excluded.
