The technique, indications for and the complications of paracervical block analgesia are reviewed in a series of 30 patients. The authors consider that this technique can be used for some gynaecological procedures, and that the patients are comfortable with it. The technique makes it possible to have complete analgesia but with small doses of drugs. In each case the stay in hospital was short and it is therefore a technique that can be used for day surgery. There is no need to explain how economically useful this is.
