Abstract
The optimal pain management in relation to laparoscopic colonic surgery remains unclarified. This article presents studies concerning the analgesic effects of paracetamol, NSAIDs, opioids, spinal and epidural blockade, transversus abdominis plane-block, infiltration and intraperitoneal local analgesics, intravenous lidocaine, gabapentinoids and corticosteroids after laparoscopic colonic resection. Moreover, side effects of the analgesics are presented and individually discussed in relation to the specific procedure. We present recommendations for pain management in relation to laparoscopic colonic resection.
