Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is not uncommondit appears in perhaps 10% to 25% of the populationdbut only a small percent of cases will produce any clinical sequelae, such as refractory hypoxia, orthodeoxia-platypnea syndrome, or migraine headaches. PFO is most notorious, however, for its association with paradoxical embolus and cryptogenic stroke (1). Conclusive proof of a causal relationship bet...
OBJECTIVE The objective of this narrative review is to summarize the current state of neurostimulation therapies for the treatment of migraine and/or cluster. METHODS For this narrative review, publications were identified by searching PubMed using the search terms "migraine" or "cluster" combined with "vagal nerve stimulation," "transcranial magnetic stimulation," "supraorbital nerve stimula...
Occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) has been employed off-label for medically refractory head pain. Identification of specific headache diagnoses responding to this modality of treatment is required. Forty-four patients with medically refractory head pain and treated with ONS were invited to participate in a retrospective study including a clinical interview and, if necessary, an indomethacin tes...

INTRODUCTION Preventive therapy is recommended in patients with migraines frequent and/or severe enough to interfere with daily life, and/or with an inadequate response to acute therapy (26-43% of patients with migraine in a recent US survey). Preventive treatments include beta blockers, amitriptyline, and antiepileptics (sodium valproate, gabapentin), but these may have significant adverse eff...
Extremely high prevalence among general population along with the high percentage of treatment-refractory cases makes migraine headaches one of the potentially largest indications for neuromodulation. Cranial peripheral nerve stimulation targeting the occipital nerve(s) alone or in combination with others appears to be both safe and efficacious for the treatment of medically intractable migrain...
