In our randomized, prospective, single-center study, we compared M-TAPA vs port site local infltration [2]. According to our results, M-TAPA provided superior analgesia compared to traditional port site infltration. Since port site infltration is one of the most common methods for pain control after LC [3–5], we compared M-TAPA vs port site infltration. Tian et al. have performed a few criticisms about our study. Herein, we want to respond to the questions of the authors [1].eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessM?TAPA’Analgesic EfficacyPostoperativeLetter37349749810.1007/s00540-023-03196-2Q30009771537000012-s2.0-8515335433637093278Q2
