Brief Summary: Ultrasound imaging has revolutionized the practice of regional anesthesia in that the operator can visualize and identify the paravertebral space, needle during its passage through the tissues, as well as deposition and spread of local anesthetic into the desired spaces. The usage of ultrasound may facilitate more rapid block onset and prolong duration with the added advantage of decrease in drug dosage, reduction in incidence of local anesthetic toxicity, increase success rate, reduction in procedure pain and better patient satisfaction.
Detailed Description: Paravertebral block targets drug delivery to the site of pain, thus decreasing opioids use. It can provide greater overall comfort with lower pain scores and greater tolerance of physical activity during the initial postoperative period.

To the best of researchers' knowledge, evaluation of unilateral ultrasound guided paravertebral block as perioperative analgesia for lower limb-sparing surgery in adult cancer patients was not investigated before.
