Computerized tomographic evaluation of supraorbital notches and foramen in patients with frontal migraine headaches and correlation with clinical symptoms

Nerve compression at SON and especially SOF contributes significantly to migraine headache symptoms, and these structures (if present) should be released during frontal migraine surgery. Given the variable presence and location of SON/SOF, analysis of available face/perinasal sinus CT images helps preoperative planning for foraminotomy and band release.
