The management of patients with chronic pain syndrome in out-patient clinics is a new form of specialized therapy. 347 cancer patients were treated using a modified "analgetic staircase" technique (14% of them at home), with an analgetic effect achieved in 60-70% of cases. The patients with pain syndrome were managed using sacral, epidural and subarachnoidal neurolysis blockades.
