Abstract

The first pain treatment clinic was created at the Portuguese Oncologic Institute in Lisbon on 1978, July 24th for development of the therapeutic, diagnostic and research activities of the respective Departments of Anesthesiology and Neurology. José Luis Portela, an anaesthesiologist consultant, was appointed responsible for pain activities at the Department of Anesthesiology. This was the first pain treatment facility created in an oncologic hospital in Portugal, soon followed by many others in other oncologic and non-oncologic hospitals.
