Supraorbital nerve electric stimulation for the treatment of intractable chronic cluster headache: a case report.
We describe a patient with intractable chronic cluster headache that responded well to supraorbital nerve electric stimulation.
متن کاملOccipital nerve stimulation in a patient with an intractable chronic headache -A case report-
Occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) is a form of peripheral nerve stimulation used to treat refractory headaches. The trial of ONS was carried with the midline incision C1-2 level, inserted electrical lead subcutaneously to oblique and cephalad direction followed by trajectory of blunt dissection. We used 8 pole electrical lead to cover lesser occipital nerve, greater occipital nerve, third occip...
متن کاملCentral modulation in cluster headache patients treated with occipital nerve stimulation: an FDG-PET study
BACKGROUND Occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) has raised new hope for drug-resistant chronic cluster headache (drCCH), a devastating condition. However its mode of action remains elusive. Since the long delay to meaningful effect suggests that ONS induces slow neuromodulation, we have searched for changes in central pain-control areas using metabolic neuroimaging. METHODS Ten drCCH patients un...
متن کاملEfficacy of hypothalamic stimulation for chronic drug-resistant cluster headache.
The study of Seijo et al. recently published in this journal (1) provides further convincing evidence that posterior hypothalamic stimulation can be an effective treatment for carefully selected patients with drug-resistant chronic cluster headache. All five patients had a severe condition that had not responded to either drugs or previous surgical treatments. A number of aspects of the study d...
متن کاملOccipital nerve stimulation with the Bion® microstimulator for the treatment of medically refractory chronic cluster headache.
BACKGROUND Chronic cluster headache is a severely disabling neurological disorder. Evidence from open-label case series suggest that occipital nerve stimulation may be effective for the treatment of chronic cluster headache. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of a microstimulator for chronic cluster headache. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, observational feasibility study plus medical record...
