At Red Butte Pain Solutions, we know how hard pelvic cancer pain can be. Pain from ovarian cancer, colon cancer, and other pelvic cancers can stop you from doing everyday activities. I have helped many patients with this severe pain, and I want to tell you about a treatment that works: superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis.
Understanding Pelvic Cancer Pain
Pelvic cancer pain happens when tumors press on nerves and tissues. It can also come from cancer treatments. This pain can be constant and very strong, making it hard to do simple tasks. At Red Butte Pain Solutions, we want to help you feel better and improve your life.
What is Superior Hypogastric Plexus Neurolysis?
Superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis is a procedure that targets the nerves causing pelvic pain. During the procedure, we inject a local anesthetic and a neurolytic agent (like alcohol or phenol) into the superior hypogastric plexus, a group of nerves in the lower back. This blocks pain signals from reaching the brain, giving you significant relief.
Success Rates and Benefits
Superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis has high success rates for treating pelvic cancer pain. Studies show that many patients feel 70-90% less pain after the procedure. This relief can last for months, helping you focus on recovery and enjoy a better quality of life.
Here are some benefits of this treatment:
- Pain Reduction: Feel less pain and function better every day.
- Improved Mobility: Move more easily and do daily activities without severe pain.
- Better Sleep: Sleep better with less pain, which is good for your health.
- Enhanced Mood: Less pain can improve your mood and mental health, reducing anxiety and depression.
- Reduced Need for Medications: Use fewer pain medications, lowering the risk of side effects and dependency.
Real-Life Success Stories
I have seen how superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis can change lives. Patients with cervical cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, and other pelvic cancers have told me about their amazing improvements. For many, this treatment is a turning point, helping them enjoy life more despite their cancer.
