This pain is often severe, especially in the early postoperative hours, making effective management both challenging and essential. Insufficient pain control frequently necessitates high doses of opioids, which may lead to adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, respiratory complications, and postoperative delirium. Excessive use of anesthetic agents or opioids can also delay extubation and prolong the process of weaning from mechanical ventilation.\n\nThe modified thoracoabdominal nerve block through the perichondrial approach (M-TAPA) is a regional anesthesia technique performed beneath the costal margin between the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscles. It provides broad dermatomal coverage, extending approximately from the upper thoracic to the lower thoracic and upper lumbar segments.
