PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: This program will review the literature regarding the medical and surgical management of sinus headache patients. A focus will be placed on the diagnosis and management of migraine in these patients, which is responsible for up to 90% of "sinus headache" complaints.

The goal is to provide a program that is useful clinically as well as enlightening academically.

Learning Objectives:

diagnose migraine in patients presenting with sinus headache complaints
