Abstrakt:	A recent study conducted at Saitama Cooperative Hospital in Japan explores the challenges of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), a side effect that can significantly impact a patient's quality of life. The study focuses on a case report of a breast cancer patient who developed CIPN after receiving paclitaxel as postoperative chemotherapy. The patient experienced pain and numbness in her fingers and toes, which were alleviated through sympathetic nerve block treatments. The research suggests that sympathetic nerve block can be an effective method for managing CIPN symptoms that are unresponsive to medication. [Extracted from the article]
