I sort of had something like this done. I have endometriosis and Adenomyosis and had a Presacral Neurectomy to help with the debilitating lower back pain I had. It’s the removal of the presacral plexus, the group of nerves that conducts the pain signal from the uterus to the brain. I still had really bad periods cramps but the back pain was gone. I’m not sure all pain causes can be focused in on a specific group o nerves though
