The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of epidural block or erector spinae plane block applied for postoperative analgesia in gynecological cancer surgeries.
The main question(s) it aims to answer are:
[Is erector spinae plane block as effective as epidural block in postoperative analgesia?] The study was designed as a prospective randomized study. Researchers evaluated the effects of epidural block or erector spinae plane block applied for postoperative analgesia on pain scores, postoperative opioid use, and mobilization in patients undergoing gynecological cancer surgery.
Our study was designed as a prospective randomized study. The investigators evaluated the analgesia methods used in patients undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancer between May 2024 and December 2024. The investigators evaluated the effect of epidural block or erector spina plan block on postoperative analgesia, opioid use and mobilization.
Group 1: Epidural block group Group 2: Group with erector spina plan block

Exclusion Criteria:
The group in which epidural block is applied for postoperative analgesia (Group Epidural)
Procedure: Patients who underwent epidural block · Procedure: Patients who underwent erector spina plane block
The group in which erector spinae plane block is applied (Group ESP)

The researchers administered an epidural block to prevent post-operative pain to the epidural block group undergoing midline incision surgery for major gynecologic cancer.
Researchers applied a erector spina plane block to prevent postoperative pain to the erector spina plane block group undergoing midline incision surgery for major gynecological cancer.
postoperative numerical rating scale
The primary purpose of this study is to compare NRS values at 0, 6, 12 and 24 hours in the first 24 hours postoperatively. Numeric rating scale was used to assess postoperative pain For example, 0-10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain imaginable.
Time frame: postoperatvely 24 hours
Intraoperative amount of remifentanyl
The secondary aim of this study is to compare the amount of intraoperative remifentanyl
Time frame: intraoperative process
postoperative mobilization time
The other purpose of this study is the first postoperative mobilization process
Time frame: postoperatvely 24 hours
