Among these, the median total MIDAS score improved from 60 (interquartile range (IQR): 19-140) to 10 (IQR: 0-49) (P = 0.004). Additionally, headache frequency over a 90-day period decreased from 45 (IQR: 25-83) to 6 (IQR: 3-36) days (P = 0.002), and headache intensity decreased from 5 (IQR: 4-7) to 4 (IQR: 2-7) (P = 0.016) at 12-months post-surgery. At 12 months post-surgery, 18 (67%) of 27 patients with preoperatively disabling headache showed clinically relevant improvement of their headache, 4 (15%) showed deterioration, and 5 (19%) remained unchanged. In patients with clinically relevant improvement of their headache, the EQ-VAS score improved from 50 (IQR: 30 - 7) to 80 (IQR: 65-86) (P < 0.001).
