There is diverse literature that affirms that the gold standard for postoperative analgesia in abdominal surgery is still the epidural technique, but many times we find ourselves unable to perform it. An important component of postoperative pain in abdominal surgery is that derived from the incision of the abdominal wall. Thanks to recent advances in regional anesthesia under ultrasound (US), abdominal wall blocks have achieved greater relevance and are now a real alternative to neuroaxial techniques and have also become a complement in postoperative analgesia. Thanks to the use of US these blocks are performed more safely and with better results. The present work represents how in any hospital, despite the few resources it may have, a better alternative for postoperative pain management should always be sought.
