Multiple Neurolytic Block for Advanced Cancer Pain

Qualify of life is the main consideration in pain management and palliative care for patients with advanced cancer. Cancer pain is primarily relieved with pharmacological therapy including aretaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, adjuvant analgesics, and opioids. In addition to pharmacological therapy, the neurolytic celiac plexus block is claimed to be an effective approach in management of advanced pancreatic cancer pain. We report our patient who has been treated for advanced cancer pain with multiple neurolytic blocks. The clinical result suggests that combined neurolytic blocks improved the quality of life of patient who had advanced ranter pain by reducing both the intensity of pain and opioid consumption, without serious complications.ope
