description | PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Migraine is a common disorder which in many cases can be adequately treated with medications. However, there are some patients who may either not respond to medications or have contraindications to their use. In this review, we will evaluate the available literature on the interventional procedures available to treat patients with episodic migraine. We will review the technical details of performing the procedures, the potential mechanisms of action, and available data on their effectiveness. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies conducted on the subject of interventional procedures including peripheral nerve blocks and onabotulinumtoxinA indicate that some patients with episodic migraine may find benefit from such procedures. SUMMARY: In patients with episodic migraine whom traditional treatments have not been effective or are contraindicated, interventional procedures may offer an opportunity to provide additional treatment options. |
