Abstract
The rectus sheath block is a novel analgesic technique that appears to have an equivalent analgesic effect to epidurals in this early observational case series. RSCs have other potential advantages including earlier mobilisation and reduced burden on nursing and medical staff, thus making it ideally suited to an enhanced recovery protocol. Larger studies are needed to confirm the findings of the current case series.
