ABSTRACT
Interfascial plane block is a quick,safe and simple technique that offers effective analgesia for video-assisted thoracotomy.However,the currently described methods still have certain limitations.We explored the application of a novel interfascial plane block method-iliocostal plane block in video-assisted thoracotomy,along with the use of stained cadaveric anatomy,with an attempt to shed new light on the analgesia for video-assisted thoracotomy.

Perioperative pulmonary aspiration is a serious complication during general anesthesia .For patients with un-known gastric condition , there is no effective method for the noninvasive evaluation of gastric content and volume preop-eratively.Because of the portable and real-time detection, bedside ultrasound can significantly reduce the risk of periop-erative reflux and pulmonary aspiration , which makes preoperative gastric contents visualized and accurate .
