This is a novel procedure that was not described before.
Recent Findings:
Author published some articles on radiofrequency ablation for the pericranial nerves for treating different types of headache with consistent positive outcomes. Success of this procedure depends on identifying the appropriate nerves to treat the headache and associated neuralgia.
