Celiac Plexus Block and Superior Hypogastric Plexus Block
2019Blockade of the celiac and superior hypogastric plexus is the mainstay of treatment for intractable pain of the abdominal and pelvic structures. These structures are accessible percutaneously using image guidance. Abdominal malignancies, both primary and due to metastasis, remain the most common indication.

Autonomic Neuroscience, 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

Superior Hypogastric Plexus Nerves
Abstract The superior hypogastric plexus block (SHP) is performed for pain originating from pelvic organs, mostly from malignant sources. It can also be performed in patients in whom treatment is completed but radiation, scar tissue, or other treatment-related side effects have resulted in pain in the pelvis.Lee Hingula +7 more

Superior Hypogastric Sympathetic Plexus
1983The preaortic sympathetic plexus is a continuation of the thoracolumbar sympathetic chain extending down anterior to the aorta and vertebral bodies in the retroperitoneal space (Fig. 36.1). The inferior hypogastric plexus is at approximately the L3–L4 level and the superior hypogastric plexus at L4–S1.

RESECTION OF SUPERIOR HYPOGASTRIC PLEXUS AND SACRAL SYMPATHETIC GANGLIONS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1939The present status of treatment of incurable tuberculous cystitis as well as pain arising in the bladder in general, and especially the rather discouraging opinions that can be gleaned from the literature with regard to its treatment by superior hypogastric (presacral) neurectomy, lead us to report our results in a series of cases of intractable ...

Case report: Tenesmus and the role of superior hypogastric plexus blocks
Palliative Medicine, 2018Background: Tenesmus is the unpleasant sensation of incomplete emptying of the rectum and it may be a distressing symptom for patients who suffer from rectal masses. Unlike nociceptive pain or visceral pain, little is understood about the pathway for this pain phenotype.
