Long-Term Efficacy of Occipital Nerve Stimulation for Medically Intractable Cluster Headache

Abstract

Our results showed that long-term efficacy of ONS in CCH was maintained over time. In responders, ONS induced a major reduction of functional and emotional headache-related impacts and a dramatic improvement of QoL. These results obtained in real-life conditions support its use and dissemination in rCCH patients.
