Summary
Chronic pain after thoracic surgery has been a bothering problem since the era of
thoracotomy. The prevalence of chronic pain no matter in thoracotomy or video-assisted
thoracoscopic surgery is about 30 to 47%. Better acute pain control after thoracic surgery
has been assumed to be an effective way for prevention of chronic pain. Especially in this
extreme minimal invasive surgery, uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery, more optimized
perioperative analgesics should be found out. In the guideline of "enhanced recovery after
surgery", less opioid is suggested. Other than opioids, there are just few parental
analgesics could be used, like acetaminophen or cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) inhibitor. In our
study, the investigators would like to build up a better analgesic strategy for uniportal
video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery with less opioid and less side effects.
