Phrenic Nerve Block for Diaphragmatic Pain: Case Report.
Referred chronic shoulder pain may arise from diaphragmatic irritation. It can potentially be alleviated by blockade of the phrenic nerve. There is literature describing its use in acute pain conditions; yet for chronic pain, there are no reports. We present 2 cases of chronic diaphragmatic irritation causing ipsilateral referred shoulder pain. Patients experienced significant pain relief and a reduction in opioid consumption after receiving an ultrasound-guided phrenic nerve block. While the phrenic nerve block shows promise for pain relief, carefully evaluating its benefits and risks is recommended before considering its application in selected cases.
