Ultrasound-guided nerve root coblation for pain relief from cervicogenic headache

Takeaway

  • Ultrasound-guided C2 nerve root coblation for patients with cervicogenic headache (CEH) can relieve pain for up to 24 weeks.

Why this matters

    Nerve root coblation has shown efficacy in some neurological conditions, but there are currently no reports on how to perform root coblation for treatment of increasingly prevalent CEH.
