<unk>  is the application of physical or chemical agents to a nerve in order to cause a temporary degeneration of targeted nerve fibers. When the nerve fibers degenerate, it causes an interruption in the transmission of nerve signals. In the medical field, this is most commonly and advantageously used to alleviate pain in cancer patients. The different types of<unk>  include celiac plexus<unk> , endoscopic ultrasound guided<unk> , and lumbar sympathetic<unk> . Chemodenervation and nerve blocks are also associated with<unk> . Additionally, there is external<unk> . Peripheral nerves move (glide) across bones and muscles. A peripheral nerve can be trapped by scarring of surrounding tissue which may lead to potential nerve damage or pain. An external<unk>  is when scar tissue is removed from around the nerve without entering the nerve itself.
