In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine which regional block provides superior analgesia in pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does one block technique provide better pain relief? * Does the choice of block reduce opioid requirements and complication rates? Researchers will compare two block techniques to see if one offers an effective opioid-sparing strategy that improves patient comfort and reduces side effects. Participants will: * Receive one of the studied block interventions during thoracic surgery. * Be monitored for postoperative pain scores, opioid consumption, and any complications.
