Bys: Derbel, Rahma, Ketata, Salma, Keskes, Mariem

Thyroidectomy is a surgical procedure that causes postoperative pain, which warrants analgesic treatment.Bilateral superficial cervical block is a locoregional anaesthesia technique that specifically targets the cervical region, and thus the thyroid gland in particular.It has the advantage of being technically simple and uncomplicated.Many teams are interested in this technique, and some have already demonstrated the efficacy of this block in this indication, while others have concluded that there is no beneficial effect.We conducted this study to assess the analgesic efficacy of the superficial cervical block performed prior to thyroid surgery, and the frequency of adverse events associated with the block and/or the use of analgesics.
