Background: Thoracolumbar interfacial plane block is a frequent procedure utilized during lumbar disc surgery. It has
changed throughout time. However, statistics on its change are limited in India.
Aim: The current study aims to compare conventional medial and modified lateral thoracolumbar interfacial plane blocks
with just GA in participants having lumbar disc surgery.
Methods: 200 subjects aged 18-70 years were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group cTLIP, which received a
conventional TLIP block with 20 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine with GA, Group mTLIP, which received a modified TLIP
block with 20 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine with GA, and Group C, which received only GA using multimodal analgesia
