Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is a unilateral analgesic technique that can provide long-lasting unilateral anesthesia for surgery involving chest wall, thorax and abdomen. It acts on somatic and sympathetic nerves and has similar indications those for intercostal, interpleural and epidural blocks. We present our experience in a developing country regarding the paravertebral block for regional anesthesia.

It acts on somatic and sympathetic nerves and has similar indications those for intercostal, interpleural and epidural blocks.
