Brief Summary   To Determine Which Of The Following Two Blocks: Ultrasound Guided Continous Erector Spinae Block And Epidural Block Is Superior For Postoperative Analgesia In Laparoscopic Nephrectomy. Nepherectomy Is A Surgical Procedure Done To Remove  Either A Diseased Or Healthy Kidney Via Open Or Laparoscopic Approaches. Acute Pain After Nephrectomy Remains A Major Problem. Chronic Pain Develops in 20 To 26 % Of Patients Undergoing Nephrectomy Leading To Higher Opiod Consumption With Many Adverse Effects.The Paravertebral Block And Epidural Block Are Common Blocks Used In Different Thoracic And Abdominal Surgeries With Some Complications.Studies Have Found That ESPB Affects Both The Ventral And Dorsal Rami, Leading To Blockage Of Both VIsceral And Somatic Pain. Because ESPB Is An Easy And Safe Method To Use, We Believe That It Is An Essential Part Of Anaesthesia Management For Nephrectomy. Thus We Have Planned A Comparative Study Of Continous ESPB Using A Catheter And Continous Epidural Block For Postoperative Analgesia In Laparoscopic Nephrectomy.
