Summary

AIM: To compare pain relief in patients randomly assigned to endoscopic ultrasound-guided celiac ganglia block (EUS-CGB) vs standard endoscopic ultrasound-guided celiac plexus block (EUS-CPB).

METHODS: This is a single-center, double-blind, randomized parallel-group study to assess the efficacy of EUS-CPB vs. EUS-CGB in patients with painful chronic pancreatitis.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

EUS-celiac ganglia block (EUS-CGB)

The intervention technique of EUS-CGB is the realization of EUS-guided celiac block with injection of bupivacaine directly into the ganglia for patients with chronic pancreatitis.

PROCEDURE

EUS-celiac plexus block (EUS-CPB)

In the arm of EUS-CPB, the procedure is going to be performed with the standard EUS-guided celiac plexus block with injection of bupivacaine into the retroperitoneal space.
