Breast surgery is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain, and high incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). If left untreated, it can lead to increased patients' suffering, a prolongation of hospital stay and related costs [1]. Failure to provide good postoperative analgesia is also associated with poor recovery and increased risk of developing chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) [2]. The incidence of CPSP after breast surgery can be as high as 60% in some cases and acute postoperative pain is, in itself, an independent predictor of CPSP after breast surgery at 4 and 9months [2,3].
