 Background:Postoperative pain is one of the most serious problems associated with osteosynthesis of lower extremity fractures. Intrathecal morphine is known to be an easy, effective, and safe method of controlling pain after lower extremity surgery, but it is not commonly used in Japan, and a prospective study is needed.

 Method:Thirty-eight consecutive patients with a lower extremity fracture in our hospital were treated by osteosynthesis under spinal anesthesia. The 18 patients who were anesthetized or operated on by the author were assigned to a morphine group and morphine was administered intrathecally. The other 20 patients served as a control group, patients' scores on a visual analog scale (VAS), the number of NSAIDs required during the postoperative period and complications of anesthesia were compared prospectively.

 Results:Postoperative scores on the VAS were lower in the morphine group (p<0.001), and fewer doses of NSAID were used in the morphine group (p<0.05). Complications were more frequent in the morphine group, but the difference between the groups was not significant.

 Conclusion:Although morphine needs appropriate postoperative care, intrathecal morphine is effective in relieving postoperative pain after surgery for lower extremity fractures.
