Résumé

Pain is a common manifestation of several benign and malignant conditions. Inadequate response to conservative therapies is often succeeded by incremental use of analgesics and opioids; however, such an approach is often ineffective, not well tolerated by patients, and carries the risk of addiction leading to the opioid crisis. Implementing minimally invasive percutaneous procedures, performed by interventional radiologists has proven to be successful in providing safe, effective, and patient-specific therapies across a wide range of painful conditions. In the present narrative review, we will review the repertoire of minimally invasive imaging guided interventions, which have been successfully used to treat common painful benign and malignant conditions. We briefly describe each technique, common indications, and expected results.
