Postoperative pain after craniotomy is frequent, with moderate-severe intensity. The fear to the side effects of opioids (nausea and vomiting and sedation), and NSAIDs (bleeding) makes it difficult to obtain adequate analgesic control in these patients. On the other hand, preoperative anxiety may be associated with a poorer postoperative analgesic control and hinder the adequate postoperative evolution. The main outcome is to assess the postoperative analgesic management in patients undergoing to craniotomy. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the appearance of postoperative side effects related to the analgesics and to assess the relationship between preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain
