About this book

This book discusses interventional treatment options on intractable (drug resistant) headache patients and extended headache attacks and extensively reviews the reasons behind treatment failure in intractable headaches, offering potential solutions based on clinical black holes of headache outpatient practice. The most appropriate interventions for certain types of headache such as chronic migraine and medication-overuse headaches, are discussed among others.

The book provides practical advice on properly administering the interventional treatments either as a bridge treatments or prophylaxis options. The expected complications of the treatments, and strategies to minimize them are also discussed. Approaches in special patient populations such as pediatric or pregnancy cases and other non-standard cases are also extensively discussed.

Reviews

In addition, the information and tips contained in the book will make it a valuable reference for everyone from medical students and residents to professionals with extensive experience.” (Nadège Préel and Markus M. Luedi, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 129 (6), December, 2019)
