Paravertebral Sympathetic Nerve Block

In this procedure, the provider performs a nerve block on the lumbar or thoracic paravertebral sympathetic nerves, which are part of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system. Blocking of the paravertebral sympathetic nerves effectively treats painful conditions of the thorax, abdomen, and lower extremities. It also has use as an analgesic for many thoracic and abdominal procedures. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries. This page does not show national, sample, or aggregate pricing.
