Celiac Plexus Block for Abdominal Pain

In this procedure, the provider performs a nerve block on the celiac plexus, called the solar plexus, which is part of the sympathetic nervous system. Blocking of the celiac plexus effectively treats abdominal pain commonly due to cancer or chronic pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas.
