The Clinical Features, Risk Factors, and Surgical Treatment of Cervicogenic Headache in Patients With Cervical Spine Disorders Requiring Surgery

Abstract: We report a lower prevalence of CEH in patients with cervical spinal disorders requiring surgery than that reported previously. The main clinical features of CEH were mild, dull, and tightening/pressing headache sensations in the occipital region. Potential risk factors for CEH included neck pain, limited cervical ROM, high Neck Disability Index score, and a diagnosis of cervical spondylotic myeloradiculopathy. The further accumulation of patients in a multi-institutional study may be required in order to disc… Show more

“…8,9 Nearly all patients with CGH tend to have myofascial trigger points on the symptomatic side. 10 While there does not appear to be a consistent consensus among all the headache specialists regarding the definition of CGH, we found the International Headache Society's classification of headaches (ICHD-3) to be helpful. They note the diagnostic criteria of CGH include clinical and/or imaging evidence of cervical spine disorder and at least 2 of the following characteristics: A, temporal relation of origination of headache with cervical spine disorder; B, resolution or improvement in cervical spine disorder correlates with resolution or improvement of headache; C, headache can be provoked by certain neck movements and/or Valsalva maneuvers; D, headache eliminated after diagnostic cervical spine injections.…”

“…1 A recent study in the Japanese population using ICHD-3 criteria estimated prevalence of CGH to be approximately 22% of all headaches. 10 Greater than 85% of patients with cervical radiculopathy or myeloradiculopathy are noted to have associated CGHs. 2,3 The high prevalence, significant morbidity, and decreased quality of life with CGH underscore the importance of understanding its pathogenesis.…”

“… 27 Included in the NDI is the headache severity index, using an ordinal scale. This headache measurement was originally used by Riina et al, 28 and later by Schrot et al, 8 and Shimohata et al 15 Headaches are rated as none (0), mild (1 or 2), or severe (3, 4, or 5). 28 Shimohata et al 15 also compared VAS and NDI scores for headache in patients with cervical spondylosis, which were highly correlated.…”

“…Severities of neck pain and headache were assessed with neck pain NDI and headache NDI. 14 , 15 Originally, NDI was used widely as a tool to assess disability of cervical spine function due to neck pain. Now it was also used as an index to evaluate severity of headache.…”
