Two plane two block for surgical anesthesia: Ultrasound-guided serratus and Erector Spinae Plane Blocks

Interfacial plane blocks have become very popular in recent years. Plane blocks have a potential to take the place of neuroaxial techniques due to their being easily performed with an ultrasound, having low complication rates and providing adequate postoperative analgesia and reducing opioid consumption [1]. Serratus plane block (SPB) and Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) are interfacial injection techniques for analgesia of the chest and abdominal wall.
