Abstract

Migraine is a recurrent, disabling neurovascular headache disorder. The patient's quality of life can be severely impaired by migraine attacks. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) can be used to relieve pain in the head, neck, and upper extremities. In the present cases, we performed SGB in 2 patients with migraine that responds poorly to drugs.
