About this study

The patients will be given general anaesthesia. Anaesthesia will be induced by propofol 1-2 mg/kg, and fentanyl 1-2 µg/kg. Endotracheal intubation will be facilitated by atracurium 0.5 mg/kg. Anaesthesia will be maintained by isoflurane in oxygen - air mixture. Transversus abdominis plane block will be performed at the end of the operation. A postoperative analgesic regimen according to group allocation will be started.
