Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

PRF on S3 + ganglion impar denervation

ganglion impar denervation

Arm Description

patients will receive pulsed radiofrequency on sacral root number 3 in conjunction with ganglion impar denervation by alcohol

patients will receive ganglion impar denervation by alcohol

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

the percentage of patients that achieve more than 50% change of their initial pain on VAS pain score
VAS pain is a scale of pain measurements scored grom 0 to 10 in which 0 = no pain and 10 the worst pain immaginable

pulsed radiofrequency
Intervention Description
patients with chronic pelvic pain due to chronic prostatitis will receive pulsed radiofrequency on sacral root number 3 and ganglion impar denervation and the patients will be followed for 6 months to assess pain severity radiofrequency procedure: patients will positioned prone on the operating table and under x-ray guidence sacral foramen number 3 will be identified and through it radiofrequency needle will be advanced to target the sacral root ganglion impar procedure: under x-ray guidance the sacrococcygeal junction is identified and spinal needle will be introduced through it to target ganglion impar and 4 ml of alcohol 50% will be injected
