Erector spinae plane block versus paravertebral block in analgesic outcomes following breast surgery

This article represents the response to the inquiries adopted by Dr. Raghuraman M Sethuraman, M.D., regarding our recently published study which compared the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) versus paravertebral block (PVB) regarding postoperative analgesic consumption following breast surgeries (Elewa et al, BMC Anesthesiol 22: 1-9, 2022). We would like to introduce our appreciation and gratitude to the author for his interest in our work, despite being inaccurate in some of his comments.
