- Conditions
- Perineal Pain
- Interventions
- Procedure: US assisted caudal epidural pulsed radiofrequency
- Registration Number
- NCT06008899
- Lead Sponsor
- Assiut University
- Brief Summary
Our primary goal will be to investigate the analgesic efficacy of ultrasound (US)-assisted caudal epidural PRF (pulsed radiofrequency)( stimulation in patients with perineal or anal pain cancer patients using (visual analog scale (VAS) scores from 0 to 10 at the baseline (pretreatment), two, four, and eight weeks; secondary outcomes will be the effects on opioid use and total opioid use in the 24 h, quality of life, patient satisfaction and opioid and intervention related side effects.
