Both techniques showed hemodynamic stability during the intraoperative and postoperative periods. Depth of thoracic paravertebral space can be measured using ultrasound visualization, mean depth in cm was significantly correlated to age of patients included in the PVB group UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
