Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The patients ' demographic data was recorded. The patients will be divided into two groups. Patients distributed to groups with closed envelope technique
Group I (n=60): control group.
All transversus abdominis plane blocks were performed under ultrasound guidance after induction of anesthesia, before beginning of surgery by the same anesthesiologist who performed block at least 20 times. 1mg/kg Bupivacaine (Marcaine (R) AstraZeneca: Istanbul, Turkey)+ Saline 0.9% (Izotonik sodyum klorur (R) (Eczacibasi: Istanbul, Turkey) ( total 40ml) injected in the transversus abdominis fascial plane under direct visualization.
Group II (n=60): 1mg/kg Bupivacaine (Marcaine (R) AstraZeneca: Istanbul, Turkey)+ 0.5 mg/kg ketamine (Ketalar (R) Pfizer: Istanbul, Turkey)+ Saline 0.9% (Izotonik sodyum klorur (R) (Eczacibasi: Istanbul, Turkey) (total 40ml).

The patients received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCA) with 90 ml normal saline + 500 mg tramadol (Tramosel (R), Haver, Istanbul, Turkey) for postoperative pain management (bolus dose: 5 ml, lockout period: 20 minutes,without loading dose). All patients received intravenous analgesia via the same type of PCA (Patient Controlled Analgesia) device for 24 hours period.
When the pain level is higher than three (0=no pain; 10=severe pain), the patient can use the patient controlled analgesia pump. If the pain still exist, additional analgesic will be applied by the same anesthesiologist who assessed outcomes and the number of additional analgesic was recorded..

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 299547 0
rate of analgesic consumption in the 24 hours after surgery

Datas of analgesic agent consumption are assessed by review of medical records. Analgesic consumption will be calculated by the total amount of analgesic agents spent on Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA)
