Management Modalities of Chronic Pelvic Pain
Sponsor: Zagazig University
Summary
Chronic pelvic pain remains a challenging disorder to treat because of the complexities of pain sensation and unclear etiology. Standard medical and surgical treatments seldom prove effective at improving quality of life and pain intensity among affected women.
Official title: Laparoscopic Presacral Neurectomy Versus Fluoroscopically Guided Superior Hypogastric Plexus Neurolysis for Treatment of Chronic Pelvic Pain: A Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial.

Interventions
Laparoscopic Presacral Neurectomy
Laparoscopy will be performed under general anesthesia. Then, nerve plexuses will be identified and freed from their underlying tissue, which contains the left common iliac and middle sacral veins. This will be followed by cauterization and cutting of the nerve plexuses.
Fluoroscopically guided Superior Hypogastric Plexus Neurolysis
The patients will receive fluoroscopically guided Superior Hypogastric Plexus Neurolysis using 3 mL of 75% ethanol and Radiofrequency of the Sacral nerve Roots 2-4.
