pubmed:abstractText |
Twelve patients have undergone unilateral coeliac plexus block using needle localisation by computed tomography and the technique is described. Computed tomography has the advantage that the needle route to the coeliac axis can be accurately planned, avoiding damage to other organs. In this study nine out of twelve patients had significant pain relief. Most success was achieved in patients with carcinoma of the pancreas.
