Summary

This prospective study evaluates celiac plexus radiosurgery for pain control in patients with upper abdominal malignancies.

Conditions

  • Digestive System Neoplasms

Interventions

RADIATION

Celiac Plexus Radiosurgery

5 fractions of SBRT (Stereotactic body radiation therapy). The target will always include the anterior-medial aspect aorta at T12-L2 (surrogate for celiac plexus). If there is adjacent tumor (e.g. pancreatic tumor that infiltrates the celiac plexus) this will be irradiated in addition. It is expected that patients will be treated with a rapid-arc IMRT (Intensity modulation radiation therapy) dose-painting technique. Details of beam arrangement and energy used will be determined on an individual basis.
