Core Tip	This review investigates the evidence for interventional pain therapy treatments for patients with cervical post-surgery syndrome. Persistent pain after cervical surgery is a common problem. Interventional therapies are specific therapy options which are well investigated for patients with neck pain and radicular symptoms. Unfortunately, only single studies for pati-ents with post-surgery syndrome exist. These studies, the different approaches (radiofrequency, facet joint nerve blocks, transforaminal and interlaminar epidural injections), and pain sources for patients after cervical surgery are discussed.
