Celiac ganglia/plexus block is used in the management of chronic upper abdominal pain. Inconsistent result of the block may be due to the variation in the vertebral level of the celiac ganglion. The study was conducted with aim of finding the vertebral level of the ganglion in order to establish a predictable pattern for the neurolysis of celiac ganglion and plexus.
