Brief Summary  

To assess the effectiveness and safety of Subtranverse Interligamentary (STIL) block in comparison with Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block in patients undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy.   The study will be conducted on 120 female patients posted for MRM. After written informed consent patients would be equally and randomly placed into two groups comprising of 54 each. Randomisation will be done by a computer generated randomisation list. 

Group I [Control Group]- Patients will be given Ultrasound Guided Erector Spinae Plane [ESP] block with 20 mL of 0.25% Levobupivacaine.

Group II [Intervention group]- Patients will be given Ultrasound Guided Subtransverse Interligamentary [STIL] block with 20 mL of 0.25% Levobupivacaine.

The severity of pain experienced by patients after surgery was assessed every 6 hours in the postoperative period till 24 hours by an observer who is blinded to the study.
