Core Tip	Arthroscopic knee surgery is a common procedure performed in the ambulatory setting. The primary goals of the anesthetic techniques used in ambulatory surgery are to reduce anesthetic complications and to allow for early patient discharge. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of low dose hyperbaric bupivacaine and levobupivacaine, with and without fentanyl, on the quality of the block, patient satisfaction, and the time elapsed until discharge in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery under unilateral spinal anesthesia.
