Özet
Dear Editor;
Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB), first described for use in chronic neuropathic pain, has more recently been used as a postoperative an algesic technique in various procedures from shoulder to hip surgeries, when applied at various cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebral levels. ESPB and other interfascial plane blocks are preferred methods due to a large variety of indications and ease of application. Weread with great interest the correspondence by Taketa et al. In which they report the successful use of ultrasound guided serrates posterior superior muscle block in interscapular myofascial pain. Myofascial pain is one of the most common forms of chronic pain and can be treated using trigger point injection and interfascial applications. We hypothesized that ESPB could provide effective analgesia in
lower cervical and interscapular myofascial pain.
