Comparison of different volumes spread of erector spinae block in postmastectomy pain syndrome management: a prospective randomized comparative study.

Background: Postmastectomy pain is chronic pain that occurs in females after breast surgeries. In this study, we estimated the vertebral levels reached by two different volumes (20 ml and 30 ml solutions) in the erector spinae block (ESB), as well as assess pain improvement and patient satisfaction in females with postmastectomy pain syndrome.

Methods: Fifty patients were assigned to two groups.

Fluoroscopic anterior approach versus ultrasound guided superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis in cancer pelvic pain: a randomized controlled study.

Background: Cancer-related pelvic pain can be difficult and debilitating to treat. Superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis (SHPN) is a good choice for adequate pain relief with fewer side effects. The current study compared between fluoroscopic anterior approach and ultrasound guided SHPN in the management of cancer-related pelvic pain.

[Single needle versus double needle celiac trunk neurolysis in abdominal malignancy pain management: a randomized controlled trial].

Background: Computerized tomography-guided celiac plexus neurolysis has become almost a safe technique to alleviate abdominal malignancy pain. We compared the single needle technique with changing patients’ position and the double needle technique using posterior anterocrural approach.

Methods: In Double Needles Celiac Neurolysis Group ( = 17), we used two needles posterior anterocrural technique injecting 12.
