Observational Study of Cryoneurolysis for Cancer-Related Pelvic Pain
This study is observing how well a treatment called "CT-guided bilateral pudendal nerve cryoneurolysis" works for people experiencing severe and long-lasting pelvic pain caused by cancer. This treatment uses very cold temperatures to freeze the pudendal nerves, which are responsible for sending pain signals. Researchers will closely watch patients who receive this treatment to see if it reduces their pain, what results it gives, and if there are any side effects. This method has shown longer pain relief compared to other options like injections. You may be eligible if you are 18 or older, have active or a history of pelvic cancer, and have poorly controlled pelvic pain in the pudendal nerve area.
