Introduction: Effective and sustained postoperative analgesia is essential to enhance recovery after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Liposomal bupivacaine, a multivesicular formulation enabling extended local anesthetic release, offers a mechanistic advantage over conventional agents. However, prior comparisons with adjuvant-enhanced regimens such as plain bupivacaine plus dexamethasone were confounded by pharmacological and dose inequivalence.

Purpose Of Review: This narrative review evaluates the efficacy and clinical applications of the rhomboid intercostal nerve block (RINB) for postoperative pain management. With growing interest in ultrasound-guided regional anesthetic techniques, RINB has emerged as a promising approach for thoracic, abdominal, and breast surgeries. We aim to synthesize current evidence on its analgesic effectiveness, opioid-sparing potential, and comparative advantages.

Background: Rhomboid intercostal plane block (RIB) has been described in the last decade. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the outcomes of RIB in terms of perioperative analgesia and patient and physician satisfaction in patients undergoing CIED.
Methods: The randomized controlled trial was structured into two arms, each comprising 25 patients and allocation was performed using a sealed-envelope randomization technique.
