Summary

This study looked at 42 breast cancer patients having a mastectomy to see which nerve block—PECS or ESP—provides better pain relief. Patients received one of the two blocks along with standard pain medicines. The main goal was to measure how much morphine they needed in the first 24 hours after surgery. The results help doctors choose the best pain control method for this surgery.
