Osteoarthritis knees is a common condition in elderly patients fo which total knee arthroplasty is the gold standard treatment. Effective postoperative analgesia will help in rapid recovery, short hospital stay and reduce the development of chronic pain. We conducted this randomised, prospective study to compare the efcacy of adductor canal block and local anesthetic inltration in patients undergoing total knee replacement surgeries. Hundred patients were included in the study, fty in each group. We observed VAS score at 3, 6, 12, 24 hours and the time to require rescue analgesia. We observed that VAS score at 3hours was less in adductor canal group with prolonged time for rescue analgesia than the local inltration group.
