The vast majority of cancer patients in advanced stages feel pain. Most are controlled with analgesics following the WHO analgesic ladder. However, a percentage of patients persist feeling pain. These are patients with difficult-to-control pain who often benefit from interventional measures. An even smaller percentage of patients keep on feeling pain as a refractory symptom despite adequate therapeutic measures. In these cases, palliative sedation is indicated. We present the case of a young patient with refractory pain who required palliative sedation in a palliative care unit of a private institution in Montevideo.La gran mayoría de los pacientes oncológicos en etapas avanzadas presentan dolor.
