Multimodal analgesia that combines around-the-clock medications and regional techniques can be especially effective for postoperative pain control. We describe a pediatric patient who underwent vertebral body tethering via an open thoracolumbar approach to treat juvenile idiopathic scoliosis. Erector spinae plane blocks (ESPBs), cryoablation to the intercostal nerves, and multimodal medications helped control our patient's pain well enough for her to be discharged home on postoperative day 2. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of this combination of regional techniques used for vertebral body tethering (VBT).
将全天候用药与区域技术相结合的多模式镇痛对于术后疼痛控制可能特别有效。我们描述了一名儿科患者,该患者通过开放胸腰椎入路进行椎体拴系术以治疗青少年特发性脊柱侧凸。竖脊肌平面阻滞(ESPBs)、肋间神经冷冻消融术和多模式药物治疗有效地控制了我们患者的疼痛,使其在术后第2天就可以出院回家。据我们所知,这是首次报道将这种区域技术组合用于椎体拴系术(VBT)。
