Background: Deep brain stimulation of the posterior hypothalamic area is one of the neuromodulation treatments used for chronic cluster headache, but the number of published patients remains low. Aim: The aim of this article was to present the retrospective results of 12 consecutive chronic cluster headache patients treated with deep brain stimulation at Helsinki University Hospital. Materials and Methods: All chronic cluster headache patients treated with deep brain stimulation between 2004 and 2012 were included in the study. Patients were interviewed and their hospital files analyzed. Treatment effect was classified as good, partial, or no effect. Results: Of the 12 patients, four had a good treatment effect, five had partial, and three had no effect of deep brain stimulation. In contrast to previous studies, our patients reported an almost immediate benefit after the onset of stimulation. Conclusions: Deep brain stimulation provides clinically meaningful benefit to a subgroup of chronic cluster headache patients.

Hypothalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used for more than a decade to treat cluster headache (CH) but its mechanisms remain poorly understood. The authors have successfully treated a patient with CH using hypothalamic DBS and found that the contact used for chronic stimulation was located in a white matter region posterior to the mammillary bodies. Fiber tracts crossing that region were the medial forebrain bundle and those interconnecting the hypothalamus and brainstem, including the dorsal longitudinal fasciculus. Because the stimulation of axons is an important mechanism of DBS, some of its clinical effects in CH may be related to the stimulation of fibers interconnecting the hypothalamus and brainstem.
