Core Tip This study demonstrates that an early multimodal analgesia protocol, utilizing ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block combined with patient-controlled intravenous analgesia, is superior to conventional on-demand opioid analgesia for infants after Kasai surgery. This approach not only provides superior and safer pain control but is also associated with reduced postoperative complications (particularly cholangitis and pulmonary infection), faster recovery, and significantly improved 6-month native liver survival.
