Core Tip The efficacy of salvage celiac plexus neurolysis (CPN) either by percutaneous or endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided technique has been modest in its ability to reduce pain and narcotic requirements in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer, and few studies with rigorous methodology exist. Data for early EUS-CPN at time of diagnosis appears to prevent pain escalation while moderating narcotic use and future studies should explore CPN for patients before rescue therapy is needed. Reports of serious and fatal complications of CPN have surfaced in recent years.
