Abstract

From November, 1976 to August, 1977. We have had experience of the eight subarachnoid injections of absolute ethyl alcohol for the pain relief of nonresectable rectal and sigmoid colon cancer in four male patients.
1. The amount of the injected alcohol was between 0.3 to 0.8 ml for one a block.
2. The speed of the alcohol injection was 0.1 to 0.2 ml per minute.
3. The duration of pain relief was between 2 to 8 months after the block.
4. The complications after the block were permanent sexual impotency in Case 1 & 2, nothing in Case 3, and in Case 4 bladder retention for two weeks and sexual impotency for one week with recovery in both. There were no motor disturbances, with usual sensory function in all cases.
