Abstract
Abstract Chronic abdominal pain from either primary or metastatic lesions is a substantial source of discomfort for patients receiving therapy or palliative care for abdominal cancers. A minimally invasive pain intervention, such as celiac plexus rhizolysis, may be needed to treat individuals whose pain is resistant to pharmaceutical therapy. Although celiac plexus rhizolysis is an effective and relatively safer technique, fatal complications such as aortic pseudoaneurysm or dissection are possible. Here, we present a case report where regular monitoring of intermittent fluoroscopic images, timely identification, and management prevented aortic dissection during transaortic celiac plexus rhizolysis.
