Quadratus lumborum block Type 1. The patient is kept in dorsal decubitus (right side was lifted by a small pillow). The bilateral US-guided QLB1 is performed using a 21G 85 mm needle (Echoplex, Vygon®, Ecouen, France), which is directed in-plane to a high-frequency ultrasound beam (probe: Acuson® P300 ultrasound system, Siemens AG®, Muenchen, Germany) was used. We visualize the LA spread in a medial direction in the anterior surface of Quadratus Lumborum (QL) posteriorly to the anterior layer of TLF.
