Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Erector SPINAE Plane Block with General Anesthesia  The patient will be placed in a sitting position. The spine will be palpated from C7 downward to T5 and point will be marked to identify the spinous process. After ensuring skin asepsis, we will place the high frequency (5 to 13 MHz) linear probe of ultrasound machine [SonoSite] in a sterile sheath, 2 to 3 cm lateral to the T5 spinous process. The three muscles from outward will be recognized as trapezius, rhomboidus major, and erector spinae muscle. A 23 G Quincke Babcock spinal needle will be inserted in the plane. A Total of 25 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine and dexamethasone 4mg will be injected through the needle. The patients will be observed for 30 min after performing the block and general anesthesia will be given. 
Comparator Agent  Only General Anesthesia  Patients will undergo surgery with only general anesthesia.

Brief Summary  
This is a randomized prospective study evaluating erector spinae plane block for postoperative analgesia in modified radical mastectomy.
Patients are allocated into two groups. Group E patients will receive general anesthesia and erector spinae plane block with a total of 25 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine and dexamethasone 4mg through a 23 G Quincke Babcock spinal needle under ultrasound guidance, while Group C patients will receive only general anesthesia.
The study’s primary objective is to assess the efficacy of Erector spinae plane block for postoperative analgesia using a visual analog pain score. The secondary objective is to assess the Time for the first rescue analgesia and the Total dose requirement of the rescue analgesic.
