Radiofrequency ablation of bilateral splanchnic nerves in a 15-year-old patient with visceral abdominal pain cancer

Pain, a prevalent and debilitating symptom in cancer patients, significantly diminishes the quality of life for both individuals and their families. Addressing this critical issue, our study presents the case of a 15-year-old diagnosed with synchronous multifocal multicentric osteosarcoma. We utilized radiofrequency ablation of bilateral splanchnic nerves, a strategy of multimodal pain and palliative care. This approach not only proved to be safe and effective but also markedly improved the patient's quality of life. Our findings shine a light of hope, emphasizing the paramount importance of innovative pain management in pediatric oncology, especially in the final stages of life. This case report highlights the unwavering dedication to excellence in relieving suffering, offering hope for patients grappling with cancer.
