Eighty-six (54%) of a series of 160 patients who underwent neurosurgery experienced postoperative cervicocephalic pain. We performed a superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) immediately after operation in the subsequent 240 patients, in which the incidence of postoperative cervicocephalic pain was reduced to 27% (65 patients), and the intensity of pain was apparently milder. SCPB is a worthwhile procedure to prevent postoperative cervicocephalic pain.
