Effects of Regional Anesthesia on Postoperative Recovery and Opioid Consumption Following Mastectomy: A Retrospective Study

Patients of breast surgery dated between April 2016 and March 2021 will be scanned in three groups; solely induced general anesthesia, general anesthesia induced with Erector Spinae Plane Block, and general anesthesia induced with Rhomboid Block.

The investigators aimed to retrospectively compare the effectiveness of regional anesthesia techniques used in the clinic for postoperative recovery and opioid consumption in patients who underwent breast surgery.
