Core Tip	Chronic head and face pain remains a debilitating condition, and patients may often be refractory to traditional medical therapies or surgical intervention (i.e., stereotactic radiosurgery or microvascular decompression). Alternatively, the use of intracerebroventricular (ICV) pain pumps has been used for refractory nociceptive pain from head and neck cancer; however, its use in non-cancer head and face pain has not been well described. Here, we report the potential risks and benefits of ICV opiate pain pumps for cluster headaches and trigeminal neuralgia refractory to medical and surgical treatment.
