Migraine is a chronic disorder that causes disability. Episodic migraine can be managed by prophylactic medical treatment or interventional pain procedures. Interventional methods used in migraine treatment are greater occipital nerve blockade, lesser occipital nerve blockade, supraorbital nerve blockade, infraorbital nerve blockade, sphenopalatine ganglion blockade, botulinum toxin injection and various radiofrequency applications. The effectiveness of greater occipital nerve blockade and transnasal sphenopalatine ganglion blockade in the treatment of migraine has been proven in various studies.We aimed to evaluate the effects of repetitive greater occipital nerve blockade and transnasal sphenopalatine ganglion blockade in patients with episodic migraine.
