Abstract
Anesthetic techniques used for open cholecystectomy are traditionally general anesthesia, neuraxial anesthesia, or both due to convenience and safety profile. Peripheral nerve blocks are usually only used for postoperative analgesia for this type of surgery. We report a case of a patient with obstructive jaundice in severe cholangitis and hypovolemic hypernatremia who underwent open cholecystectomy and T-tube drain under right-sided rectus sheath and subcostal transversus abdominis plane blocks.
