Brief summary: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the major disorder of the pediatric population with an incidence of 3 to 5 per 1000 children. Open surgical reduction of congenital hip dislocation (CHD) is typically performed after an ineffective closed reduction or older than 18 months. Multiple femoral or pelvic osteotomies and tenotomies are performed during this surgical treatment and cause severe postoperative pain.Since initial description for abdominal surgery, the quadratus lumborum block has experienced several surgeries for postoperative pain management in adults and pediatrics. One of these indication is the hip surgery and described for adult hip arthroplasty. In addition we reported two pediatric cases that single dose transmuscular quadratus lumborum block is an affective analgesia for CHD surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided transmuscular quadratus lumborum block in pediatric patients undergoing CHD surgery.
