Research progress on superior hypogastric plexus block for the treatment of chronic pelvic pain
Chronic pelvic pain is a common intractable clinical pain with a complex etiology,which seriously affects the quality of life and physical and mental health of patients,and aggravates their economic and psycho-logical burdens. There are various treatment methods with different efficacy,and there is no unified treatment plan yet. Superior hypogastric plexus block is a minimally invasive and interventional method,which is suitable for all kinds of pelvic pain that is ineffective in conservative treatment. Currently,a number of domestic and international studies have reported its benefits in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain,but there is still a lack of high-quality clinical evidence on related topics. This article aims to review the research progress on superior hypogastric plexus block for the treatment of chronic pelvic pain,with a view to providing ideas for seeking fur-ther clinical support.
