ABSTRACT
The ultrasound-guided midpoint transverse process to pleura block has been described as an alternative end-point for thoracic paravertebral blockade. Although originally described as a single-level block, midpoint transverse process to pleura blockade may cover more than one level when larger volumes of injectate are used. Moreover, a continuous catheter midpoint transverse process to pleura blockade technique was previously thought to be unfeasible. We report three cases where a midpoint transverse process to pleura continuous catheter technique was successfully used for postoperative analgesia following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
