Pain, a prevalent and debilitating symptom in cancer patients, significantly diminishes the quality of life for both individuals and their families. Addressing this critical issue, our study presents the case of a 15-year-old diagnosed with synchronous multifocal multicentric osteosarcoma. We utilized radiofrequency ablation of bilateral splanchnic nerves, a strategy of multimodal pain and palliative care. This approach not only proved to be safe and effective but also markedly improved the patient's quality of life. Our findings shine a light of hope, emphasizing the paramount importance of innovative pain management in pediatric oncology, especially in the final stages of life. This case report highlights the unwavering dedication to excellence in relieving suffering, offering hope for patients grappling with cancer.
疼痛是癌症患者普遍存在且衰弱的症状,极大地降低了患者及其家庭的生活质量。针对这一关键问题,我们的研究报告了一例 15 岁诊断为同步多灶性多中心骨肉瘤的病例。我们采用双侧内脏神经射频消融术,结合多模式疼痛和姑息治疗策略。该方法不仅安全有效,而且显著提高了患者的生活质量。我们的研究结果带来了希望,强调了在儿科肿瘤学中采用创新疼痛管理的重要性,尤其是在生命的最后阶段。本病例报告强调了在缓解痛苦方面追求卓越的坚定决心,为与癌症作斗争的患者带来了希望。
