Arms and Interventions

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: radiofrequency splanchnic denervation

PROCEDURE: radiofrequency splanchnic denervation

  • the authors will denervate the splanchnic nerves via radiofrequency
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: retrocrural celiac denervation

PROCEDURE: retrocrural celiac denervation

  • the authors will denervate the splanchnic nerves in the retrocrural space via injection of alcohol
Primary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
the percentage of patients that gain more than 50% reduction of their pain on VAS pain scoreVAS pain scale is a tool for measurement of pain intensity scored from 0 to 10 in which 0 + no pain and 10 + the worst pain immaginable6 months postoperatively
