Sponsor's own description

Many studies had stated that the coeliac plexus neurolysis (CPN) is a safe and effective treatment method of pain associated with pancreatic cancer. The neurolytic injectate is usually alcohol 50-100%; however, phenol \>5% is also possible to use. Nowadays, there are several techniques to access the coeliac plexus (per cutaneous using fluoroscopy or computed tomographic imaging (CT), surgical and endoscopic ultrasound). However, the percutaneous computed tomography guided technique is the gold standard technique, it has multiple drawbacks as availability and cost of imaging modality, exposure to radiation and multiple complications.Surgical technique in spite of being easy, cheap but there is a controversy about its efficacy. Also there is no head to head comparison between the surgical technique and the percutaneous technique.In this study we hypothesized that intraoperative technique has the same efficacy of percutaneous celiac block technique with less complication and cost
