Abstract Background The appropriate choice of postoperative analgesia for pyothorax surgery is unclear since local infection could contaminate the catheter used for regional blocks and bacteremia can lead to disordered coagulation. We performed erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in a pyothorax patient undergoing emergency re-open thoracotomy. Case presentation An 81-year-old male with internal jugular vein stenosis on aspirin therapy was scheduled for pyothorax drainage and residual middle lobectomy 14 days after he underwent open right lower lung lobectomy for lung cancer. ESPB was performed with injection of 20 ml of 0.375% levobupivacaine at the Th5 transverse process of the right side under ultrasound guidance. Although he needed intravenous pentazocine for pain on postoperative day 0, no more analgesics were required postoperatively. NRS score ranged from 0 to 1 thereafter. Conclusions ESPB provided effective postoperative analgesia following emergency re-open thoracotomy for our pyothorax patient. ESPB might be the appropriate choice for postoperative analgesia following pyothorax surgery.

Sparing Effect

Background: Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been described as an effective regional anesthesia technique in thoracic parenchymal surgery. Evidence highlighting the use of this technique continuously via perifascial catheter is lacking. Case presentation: In this case report, we present the case of a patient scheduled for robotic-assisted thoracic surgery for a pulmonary neoformation in the lower right lobe. We decided to manage this patient with a multimodal approach in order to have an opioid-sparing effect. This is the first reported case of continuous ESPB in robot-assisted thoracic surgery. Conclusions: Anesthesiologists should consider this method in surgery that is slower than conventional surgery, such as robot-assisted, and less invasive than thoracotomy, which does not warrant the use of neuroaxial or paravertebral techniques that increase the risk of iatrogenic complications.

Introduction: Three ways of simple calculations (segmental based on 18 segments method, segmental based on 19 segments method and subsegmental method) of predictive postoperative values of FEV1 and DLCO are in use during the preoperative survey for patients planned for lung resection as treatment of lung carcinoma as a part of risk assessment. Hypothesis: Segmental calculation method based on 19 segments is better than subsegmental method and segmental calculation method based on 18 segments in prediction of postoperative values of both FEV1 and DLCO one month after lung lobectomy. Materials and methods: Expected postoperative calculated values of FEV1 and DLCO (two segmental and one subsegmental method) of 52 patients undergone lobectomy are related to real postoperative values for same patients one month after surgery. Results: According to univariate analysis, real values of postoperative DLCO correlate most significantly with ppoDLCO calculated by segmental method (18 segments), but real values of postoperative FEV1 correlate most significantly with ppoFEV1 calculated by 19 overall segments segmental method. Data analysis as well showed that preoperative calculated PpoFEV1 and PpoDLCO underestimate real postoperative values of FEV1 and DLCO one month after lobectomy, but it is not statistically significant. Discussion: Same as contemporary guidelines suggest, ppoFEV1 calculation by 19 segments segmental method seems to be the best choice. PpoDLCO is maybe better to calculate by 18 segments segmental method.
