Our objective is to investigate the extent of cranial dermatomal spread of transmuscular quadratus lumborum block(TMQLB )when equal dosage(ml/kg) of local anesthetic are injected with the transverse versus an modified paramedian sagittal approach for patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
The paramedian sagittal oblique transmuscular quadratus lumborum block(TMQLB )approach has been introduced to facilitate cranial spread by injecting the local in a caudal to cranial direction compared with the transverse approach. Currently, there are no data comparing the two techniques mentioned above with regards to extent of spread level. Our objective is to investigate the extent of cranial dermatomal spread of TMQLB when equal dosage(ml/kg) of local anesthetic are injected with the transverse versus an modified paramedian sagittal approach for patients undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy. In addition, the investigators wish to compare the performance time, caudal dermatomal spread of TMQLB and postoperative analgesia effect.

RECRUITINGCephalic sensory dermatomal spread
The pinprick method at the midclavicular line was used to assess the extent of the dermatomal blockade, 20 minutes following the completion of the procedure by a person who was blinded to group allocation. The most cephalic dermatomal level that show a decreased pinprick sensation is recorded.A block failure was defined as the absence of any demonstrable sensory block 20 minutes after performance of the block.
Time frame: 20 minutes after block performance]
Time to performance of procedure
Duration from needle insertion toward local anesthetic injection finished
Time frame: Duration of procedure
Total sensory dermatomal spread
The pinprick method at the midclavicular line was used to assess the extent of the dermatomal blockade, 20 minutes following the completion of the procedure by a person who was blinded to group allocation. The total number of dermatomal levels that show decreased pinprick sensation is recorded.A block failure was defined as the absence of any demonstrable sensory block 20 minutes after performance of the block.
Time frame: 20 minutes after block performance
Incidence of complication
incidence of complication including bleeding, hematoma, infection at puncture site, local anesthetic poisoning, etc
Time frame: Within 48 hours after surgery
Caudal sensory dermatomal spread
The pinprick method at the midclavicular line was used to assess the extent of the dermatomal blockade, 20 minutes following the completion of the procedure by a person who was blinded to group allocation. The most caudal dermatomal level that show a decreased pinprick sensation is recorded.A block failure was defined as the absence of any demonstrable sensory block 20 minutes after performance of the block.
