Anterior Ultrasound-Guided Superior Hypogastric Plexus Neurolysis in Pelvic Cancer Pain [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2008
The hypogastric plexus block is classically performed by a posterior approach, but there are recent reports of a computed tomography-guided anterior approach for patients who have difficult access to the hypogastric plexus by the posterior approach. We present two patients who were successfully given ultrasound-guided superior hypogastric plexus block

Cross‐sectional investigation of the distribution characteristics and prognostic significance of lateral lymph nodes in patients with rectal cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 13, Issue 18, September 2024.
Lateral local recurrence (LLR) is the main locoregional recurrence pattern, and most rectal cancer patients have measurable lateral lymph nodes (LLNs) on primary CT scan. Patients with the largest LLN short‐axis diameter >10 mm had a poor prognosis. Patients with LLN risk scoring ≥2 had a worse prognosis.
