Offering timely coverage of this complex field, Interventional Management of Chronic Visceral Pain Syndromes is a practical, evidence-based guide for the mechanisms, presentation, diagnosis, and treatments of chronic non-malignant and malignant abdominal pain syndromes. Experienced clinicians and academic leaders in pain medicine comprehensively discuss best-practice guidelines using the newest interventional techniques, including dorsal root ganglion stimulation, high frequency spinal cord stimulation, and low-dose intrathecal infusion pumps. Coverage includes malignant and non-malignant gastrointestinal pain, malignant and non-malignant pelvic pain in males and females, rectal pain, and chest pain.
  • Discusses key demographic characteristics as well as clinical and diagnostic presentations of the most common and esoteric visceral pain syndromes that will enable clinicians to identify pain generators.

  • Provides a truly systematic approach to the treatment of chronic visceral pain, including the use of pharmacologic, non-interventional, interventional, and multidisciplinary therapies with evidence-based data.

  • Covers the indications, contraindications, and outcomes results of the newest interventional treatments that all clinicians should be aware of, including neuromodulation and intrathecal pump therapy.
