Pain VAS score of patients in the study and control groups. Compared with Group B, postoperative pain in Group A was significantly reduced in PACU (VAS score, 0.54 ± 1.07 vs. 1.97 ± 1.48, p < 0.0005), at 6 h (VAS score, 0.49 ± 1.12 vs. 2.24 ± 1.36, p < 0.0005), 12 h (VAS score, 0.86 ± 1.29 vs. 2.30 ± 1.35, p < 0.0005), and 24 h after operation (VAS score, 1.35 ± 1.27 vs. 1.97 ± 1.32, p < 0.05). *p < 0.05; Group A: intervention group (ropivacaine infiltration); Group B: control group (normal saline infiltration); PACU: Post-anesthesia care unit; VAS: Visual analogue scale
