chest wall will be systematically scanned. Initially the probe will be placed in a cephalad to caudad paramedian direction at the anterior axillary line, and the external oblique muscle will be identified at the level ribs 6 and 7 in line with the xiphoid process to confirm correct identification of the external oblique muscle, the probe will be moved in the caudad direction following the external oblique muscle. At the subcostal level, the ultrasound probe will be rotated 90° to see the convergence with the internal oblique and transversus abdominus muscles. The probe will be then moved back to the initial identification point for the external oblique muscle. The EOI plane will be identified deep to the external oblique muscle and superficial to the sixth and seventh ribs and their associated intercostal muscles. Local anesthetic agent will be 20 ml volume (10 ml bupivacaine 0.5% ,10ml saline) will be then injected, this procedure will be done bilaterally.

we will be scanning the anatomy of the lateral paravertebral space using a high-frequency linear ultrasound transducer, after identification of the transverse process, internal intercostal membrane (IIM), and pleura at the T3 and T6 levels, an out-of-plane needle guidance technique would be used to perform the PVB with 20 ml volume (10 ml bupivacaine 0.5% ,10ml saline) will be then injected, this procedure will be done bilaterally.

rescue analgesia will be given in the form of morphine 4 mg when VAS score ≥4

It is a validated subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain."
