Abstract (English): 37-year-old woman with advanced breast cancer in palliative care, with supraclavicular adenopathic progression causing severe neuropathic pain in the left upper extremity (visual analog scale (VAS) 10/10) due to compression of the brachial plexus. She was admitted for poor pain control despite intensive treatment with major opioids and neuromodulators. Interscalene catheter was placed under ultrasound control and neurostimulation. Initial infusion of 8 ml of lidocaine 2% and maintenance with ropivacaine 0.2% + fentanyl (2 mcg/ml) at 2 ml/h, combined with an intravenous infusion of ketamine at 0.1 mg/kg/h. The multimodal approach offers a valuable therapeutic alternative in the palliative care setting. In this case, placement of an interscalene catheter with continuous infusion of local anesthetic and opioids in combination with intravenous ketamine infusion allowed effective pain management (VAS 2/10), reducing the need for major opioids and significantly improving the patient’s well-being.

Abstract (Spanish): Mujer de 37 años con neoplasia de mama avanzada en cuidados paliativos, con progresión adenopática supraclavicular que origina un dolor neuropático grave en extremidad superior izquierda (escala visual analógica (EVA) 10/10) debido a la compresión del plexo braquial. Ingresa por mal control del dolor a pesar de tratamiento intensivo con opiáceos mayores y neuromoduladores. Se coloca catéter interescalénico bajo control ecográfico y neuroestimulación. Infusión inicial de 8 ml de lidocaína 2% y mantenimiento con ropivacaína 0,2% + fentanilo (2 mcg/ml) a 2 ml/h, combinado con una perfusión endovenosa de ketamina a 0,1 mg/kg/h. El enfoque multimodal ofrece una alternativa terapéutica valiosa en el contexto de cuidados paliativos. En este caso, la colocación de un catéter interescalénico con infusión continua de anestésico local y opiáceos en combinación con perfusión endovenosa de ketamina permitió un manejo eficaz del dolor (EVA 2/10), reduciendo la necesidad de opioides mayores y mejorando significativamente el bienestar de la paciente.
