The suprarenal plexus is formed by branches from the celiac plexus, from the celiac ganglion, and from the phrenic and greater splanchnic nerves, a ganglion being formed at the point of junction with the latter nerve.
A blunt injury to the celiac plexus normally resolves with rest and deep breathing. A celiac plexus block by means of fluoroscopically guided injection is sometimes used to treat intractable pain from cancers [2] such as pancreatic cancer. Such a block may be performed by pain management specialists and radiologists, with CT scans for guidance.
The renal plexus is a complex network of nerves formed by filaments from the celiac ganglia and plexus, aorticorenal ganglia, lower thoracic splanchnic nerves and first lumbar splanchnic nerve and aortic plexus. [1] The nerves from these sources, fifteen or twenty in number, have a few ganglia developed upon them.

The nerve contributes to the celiac plexus, a network of nerves located in the vicinity of where the celiac trunk branches from the abdominal aorta. The greater splanchnic nerve modulates the activity of the enteric nervous system of the foregut. It stimulates contraction of the splanchnic vasculature, increasing blood pressure. [5]
Renal plexus: Lumbar splanchnic nerves: L1–2: Inferior mesenteric ganglia, ganglia of intermesenteric and hypogastric plexuses: Sacral splanchnic nerves: sacral part of sympathetic trunk: inferior hypogastric plexus and ganglia to the pelvic viscera: Pelvic splanchnic nerves: parasympathetic: S2–S4
The indications for ganglion impar blockade are based on the anatomical location of pain and include various conditions such as perineal pain (with or without malignancy), rectal/anal pain (proctitis), distal urethral pain, vulvodynia, scrotal pain, female pelvic/vaginal pain (distal 1/3), sympathetically-maintained pain (e.g., Complex Regional ...
