“…The evidence revealed that applying ESPB leads to decreasing intraoperative and postoperative opioid use [ 15 ]. However, ESBP is not a routine anesthetic technique and has been rarely reported to be used in this regard [ 16 – 20 ]. This case report presents a successful course of applying ESBP for conducting thoracotomy.…”

Background The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a novel regional block technique for pain management following thoracic surgeries. However, there are minimal cases in which the technique was used as the main anesthesia technique during surgery. Case presentation Here, we report the successful use of ESBP for applying anesthesia in a case during an emergent thoracotomy for performing pericardiotomy and loculated tamponade evacuation. Conclusions Using ESPB with a higher concentration of local anesthetics, in this case, prepared appropriate anesthesia for performing an emergent thoracotomy while avoiding multiple needle insertions and the risk of further hemodynamic instability.
