Summary
Modified radical mastectomy is the most commonly performed surgical approach for breast cancer. The procedure enables surgeons to remove the main tumor mass, adjacent glandular tissue and regional lymph nodes. Moreover, it provides a cosmetic outcome that clearly surpasses the standard radical mastectomy and allows subsequent breast reconstruction with favorable results.
The present randomized study aims to compare the postoperative analgesic effects of dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine as adjuncts to serratus anterior plane block in women undergoing modified radical mastectomy.
