BACKGROUND: This prospective double-blind study compared the analgesic properties of locally infiltrated @entity1343 with those of @entity1342 in fleur-de-lys abdominoplasty. METHODS: A total of 46 @entity1 subjected to fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty under general anesthesia were included. The @entity1 were randomly assigned to receive local infiltration of the peri-incisional and dissected area with the following solutions: group A (placebo group, n = 15) received 100 ml of saline 0.9%, group B (n = 15) received 50 ml of @entity1342 0.75% in 50 ml of saline 0.9%, and group C (n = 16) received 60 ml of @entity1343 0.25% in 40 ml of saline 0.9%. The anesthetic technique was standardized for all the groups. The @entity1 were asked to assess their @entity158 at rest on a visual analog scale (VAS) at 2 h, 4 h, and 24 h postoperatively. Data were analyzed by mixed analysis of variance (ANOVA), simple ANOVA, and repeated measures ANOVA, followed by Tukey's test. RESULTS: Groups B and C did not differ significantly in their VAS scores at 2 h postoperatively, but group C experienced significantly less @entity158 (p < 0.001) than either the control group or the B group at 4 h and 24 h postoperatively. Group B also registered significantly lower VAS scores (p < 0.001) than the placebo group at 4 h postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: It is concluded that for mini abdominoplasty, adequate @entity1337 is achieved for at least 4 h postoperatively by local tissue infiltration with either @entity1342 or @entity1343 . However, in terms of intensity and duration of @entity1337 , @entity1343 was found to be more effective than @entity1342 in reducing @entity282 associated with mini abdominoplasty.
