Popis: Key Clinical Message Persistent hypotension is a rare complication of celiac plexus neurolysis. It is important to know what are the main and rare complications and how to treat these in patients who undergo CPN. Abstract Celiac plexus neurolysis is an effective treatment for visceral abdominal pain in oncological patients. Although it rarely has complications, some side effects may occur. A patient with visceral abdominal pain who developed long‐lasting orthostatic hypotension and was treated with the use of corticosteroids after a neurolytic celiac plexus block for intractable pain. We describe a rare complication and its treatment and we emphasize the importance of having a guide for the management and treatment of rare complications. We also suggest that every patient be informed about complications, from the most common to the rarest.
