Abstract

Objective To observe therapeutic effect of levobupivacaine and roplvacaine in curing seroma after modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer by satellite ganglion block. Methods A total of 90 patients were collected and randomly divided into three groups. L group (Levobupivacaine) included 30 patients. 30 patients were in R group(roplvacaine). The rest 30 patients in the control group were treated without satellite ganglion block. The amount of drainage, the condition of incision concrescence, the number of drainage tube pulled out before the treatment as well as on the seventh day and tenth day after the treatment were recorded respectively. Results Statistical significance was found between C group and L, R group in prior and post treatment, the amount of seroma decreased on each observation point (P < 0.05), the number of drainage tube pulled out increased ( P < 0.05 ). No significant differences were found between L and R group ( P > 0.05). Conclusion The application of levobupivacaine and roplvacaine in curing seroma after modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer by satellite ganglion block was safe and effective, both of them could be used. Key words: Roplvacaine; Levobupivacaine; Satellite Ganglion Block; Breast neoplasms
