Core Tip This retrospective study evaluated outcomes after the initial computed tomography-guided neurolytic splanchnic nerve block in 22 patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. Clinical success was achieved in 81.8%, with responses observed in both pancreatic head and body/tail tumors. No grade ≥ 3 adverse events were observed. These encouraging findings support further investigation of this approach for pancreatic cancer pain management. Larger prospective studies with standardized outcome assessments are needed to confirm the findings and clarify potential differences by tumor site.
