Analgesia following tympanomastoid surgery is critical for the prevention of postoperative . There are very few regional anesthesia methods used to achieve this goal.
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of Ultrasound guided superficial cervical plexus block versus greater auricular nerve block for on postoperative tympanomastoid surgery analgesia.
