Abstract
Chronic pelvic pain affects a large percentage of women and treatment options are commonly limited to physical therapy, medications, and surgery. Many women continue to have pain which limits their daily function despite these treatment options. Nerve blocks may be underused in treatment. We describe a case of a young female with chronic pelvic pain secondary to stage 4 endometriosis successfully managed with abdominal peripheral nerve blocks. This highlights the potential for another treatment modality for chronic pelvic pain utilizing acute pain interventions in the chronic pain setting.
