Endoscopic Ultrasound of Pancreatic and Biliary Diseases
Abstract
Treatment of pain by blockade or neurolysis of the celiac plexus has been performed for more than 100 years by percutaneous or surgical techniques. More recently, EUS-guided CPB or celiac plexus neurolysis (CPN) have been widely adopted. In both procedures, a local anesthetic is injected; for CPB, a steroid is usually added, and for CPN, ethanol is usually injected. Various injection methods and injectants may be used and are well summarized elsewhere
