Chronic pain continuing for a long time after surgery is one of the emerging medical problems in the field of pain medicine. The presence of chronic postsurgical pain is associated with poor health-related quality of life, increased medical costs and negative psychological effects [1]. In the United States, 5% of opioid naive patients become long-term opioid users after surgery [2].Chronic postsurgical pain was initially defined as pain continuing for at least 2 months [3]. However, it was debated that 2 months might be too short a period to completely exclude the “functional results of the surgical procedure”[4]. The more recently developed classification of chronic pain according to the International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision (ICD-11) defines chronic postsurgical pain as pain that persists for at least 3 months after the surgery [5]. Based on this definition, the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain was estimated as 10–50%[6]. Although its frequency varies depending on the type of surgery, the degree of tissue injury or presence of nerve injury does not always correlate with the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain [7, 8]. The high prevalence of chronic postsurgical pain is a global phenomenon. Sugiyama et al. conducted a multicenter survey in Japan to investigate the prevalence of chronic postsurgical pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and lung cancer surgery, and concluded that chronic pain prevalence was 49% and 18% at 3 months after TKA and lung surgery, respectively [9]. Chronic postsurgical pain has unique characteristics based on the event that leads to the chronic pain condition. Most patients undergoing elective surgery have a chance to receive preventive analgesic intervention. Consequently, several studies have been conducted to determine perioperative
