Treatment for Cluster Headache

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak repair in cluster headache management involves surgical intervention to seal dural defects, typically through autologous tissue grafting or fibrin sealants. The procedure aims to restore intracranial pressure and prevent further neurological complications, potentially reducing the frequency and intensity of cluster headache episodes by mitigating mechanical and inflammatory triggers associated with CSF leakage.
