title: [Continuous, long-term peridural morphine analgesia in an ambulatory cancer patients].
abstract: For the treatment of cancer patients opioids can be administered epidurally. Continuous epidural analgesia with morphine, carried out with an externally portable pump, which can be programmed as to dosage, offers certain advantages as compared to a bolus injection. In contrast to the method of implanting a pump system our procedure is considerably less invasive, more economical, due to reusage of the pump, and more convenient to the patient.
