The cornerstones of analgesic management are oral and intravenous medications such as paracetamol, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opioids as well as regional block techniques as paravertebral block and thoracic epidural. To avoid opioid as well as regional block related side effects such as pneumothorax and hemodynamic instability, previous studies showed that superficial chest wall block such as thoracic erector spinae plane block and serratus anterior plane block had shown a promising success in management of such pain with few side effects. In an effort to reduce the pain score, hospital stay and improve the patient's capability of physi
