Combined ultrasound-guided C2 DRG pulsed radiofrequency and suboccipital myofascial plane block for cervicogenic headache: a retrospective study

Ultrasound-guided C2 DRG PRF combined with SMPB demonstrated greater reductions in pain and disability than PRF alone in CEH. These findings provide preliminary, hypothesis-generating evidence supporting the feasibility and clinical utility of this multimodal approach. Prospective randomized trials with longer follow-up are warranted.

Abstract

Ultrasound-guided C2 DRG PRF combined with SMPB demonstrated greater reductions in pain and disability than PRF alone in CEH. These findings provide preliminary, hypothesis-generating evidence supporting the feasibility and clinical utility of this multimodal approach. Prospective randomized trials with longer follow-up are warranted.
