Abstract

Migraine is a debilitating disorder that is more prevalent in females. It is an incurable disease, and there are patients who do not respond to conventional treatment. Migraine surgery has shown success in symptom control and improvement in quality of life. The General objective is to determine the effectiveness of surgical treatment as a therapeutic alternative in patients with migraine. A descriptive study with a literature review was conducted. Eligibility criteria were established for the search of information in scientific databases such as PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Elsevier and Scielo. Migraine treatment can be pharmacological and non-pharmacological. Surgery for migraines is recommended as long as the established criteria are met, such as refractoriness, negative response to treatment, and impact on quality of life. This procedure has shown success rates ranging from 58.3% to 100%, with partial or complete improvements. Studies support the efficacy of surgery, with statistically significant differences (p < 0.05). Migraine surgery is influenced by various factors; nevertheless, the effectiveness has been greater than 50% in all cases.
