Abstract
- Superior hypogastric plexus block is extensively recognized as a unique nerve block method for the treatment of low abdominal pain originating from organs of the pelvic area This block is difficult to perform on older patients, especially those with osteophyte as they will experience a high degree of pain with this technique. Therefore we reported trans-discal superior hypogastric plexus by method of approach needle through disc. This method is less painful to the patient as compared to bilateral approach; and easier to place the needle tip at precise and proper location.
