Introduction: Chronic pain in the abdomen occurs as a consequence of malignancy in these parts of the body, surgical, of radiological and chemotherapy treatments. It may also be as a result of relapse of the basic process. Non-invasive therapy of oral and transdermal analgesic was successful for some time, where necessary applies and epidural catheter. Case Report: The patient had a diagnosis of chronic postoperative pain malignant etiology. He is already used transdermal fentanyl and Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, but without success (VAS score 8-10). We increased doses of analgesics, but without success. In order of pain therapy, peridural catheter placed in the level L3 - L4. 5 ml of a solution of 8 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine, 2 ml (100 micrograms) of fentanyl and 10 ml of saline was administered every 6 hours through epidural catheter. The former chronic non-invasive treatment of pain did not stop. The first three to five days of pain relief was quite satisfactory in this way. Then the pain intensified but the peridural catheter had to be removed due to local infection. New peridural catheter was placed in the level L2 -L3. Then, 5 ml of the solution: of 8 ml 0,25% bupivacaine, 2 ml (100 micrograms) of fentanyl and 10 ml of saline is administered through peridural catheter. Peridural catheter was total used for 45 days. We had a need for more and more frequently administering analgesics through a catheter during use. The patient was using transdermal fentanyl and Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, all the time. The patient soon died due to progression of the underlying disease. Conclusion: After long-term administration of opioids, it is necessary to change the type and route of administration of the drug to achieve the success of the therapy. In this case it was the use of analgesics and local anesthetics through the peridural catheter
