Superior Hypogastric Plexus Block in the Lateral Position: A Case Report

open access: yesAnesthesiology and Pain Medicine, 2019
Patients with severe visceral abdominal or pelvic pain are sometimes candidates for celiac or superior hypogastric block. These blocks are performed in the prone position that is usually very painful for these patients. We introduce another position for these blocks that can be better tolerated.We performed the superior hypogastric plexus block in the ...

A New Technique for Superior Hypogastric Plexus Block: The Posteromedian Transdiscal Approach

open access: yesThe Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2005
Superior hypogastric plexus block has been advocated for the treatment of cancer related pelvic pain. Neurolysis is usually established using the classical posterolateral approach in the prone position, in which correct placement of the needle is sometimes difficult due to vertebral anatomy and the patient's inability to lie prone.

New insights in the neuroanatomy of the human adult superior hypogastric plexus and hypogastric nerves

Autonomic Neuroscience: Basic and Clinical, 2015
The superior hypogastric plexus (SHP) is an autonomic plexus, located ventrally to the abdominal aorta and its bifurcation, innervating pelvic viscera. It is classically described as being composed of merely sympathetic fibres. However, post-operative complications after surgery damaging the peri-aortic retroperitoneal compartment suggest the existence
