Purpose of review: Examining the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation in treating headache conditions.
Recent findings: The efficacy of radiofrequency ablation in treating headache conditions is not well studied. Chronic headache conditions can be difficult to treat with little consensus on management of headaches associated with pericranial neuralgias. In this retrospective study, we found that radiofrequency ablation is an effective and safe treatment for resistant headache conditions. This study is important as it describes a novel treatment for chronic headache which can benefit a large number of patients.
