Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: external oblique intercostal block
receive US-guided external oblique intercostal block after induction

After induction of general anesthesia, external oblique intercostal block will be performed (8) under ultrasonographic guidance with transportable ultrasound device ( Sonosite ,superficial probe ,14-15 MHz).

the patient will be positioned supine, and a linear ultrasound transducer will be placed in the sagittal plane between the midclavicular and anterior axillary lines at the level of sixth rib. 20 ml of bupivacaine 0.25% will be injected between the plane of the external oblique and the intercostal muscles. The drug will be injected after a negative aspiration.

The contralateral side block will be performed in a same manner.

No Intervention: No block
receive postoperative morphine on patient request
