Abstract
Three cases were reported. The initial case was a patient of the maxillar cancer who had a pain over the left upper gingiva and a swelling of the left cheek and was treated with the radiation and injection of 5-FU. The pain over the gingiva became mild after the administration of the maxillar nerve block by alcohol for over 3 months.
The second case was a patient of the maxillar cancer who had a pain over the left cheek and had an operation. But the cancer was progressive. He was treated with the radiation and injection of bleomycin.
The pain over the left cheek became mild after the administration of the maxillar nerve block by alcohol, but it became uneffective due to the progress of the maxillar cancer. The last case was a patient who had a swelling of the left cheek and treated with the radiation and injection of 5-FU. The pain over the left cheek and teeth became mild after the administration of the maxillar nerve block by alcohol for over onemonth.
The maxillar nerve block by alcohol is effective to relieve the patients of the maxillar cancer from the pain when it is administrated with the treatment such as radiation and injection of 5-FU or bleomycin.
