According to the International Headache Society classification, headache disorders can be divided into primary or idiopathic, second- ary, and orofacial pain disorders such as neuralgia and sinonasal related disorders [1–3]. Rhinogenic contact point headache (RCPH) is included among the secondary forms of the Headache Classification Subcom- mittee of the International Headache Society [1]. RCPH is defined as a syndrome secondary to mucosal contact points in the nasal sinus cav- ities, in the absence of inflammatory signs, hyperplastic mucosa, puru- lent discharge, sinonasal polyps, or tumors [4–6]. However, the pathology remains debated in the literature, especially because of its diagnostic setting and therapeutic options [7]. Moreover, RCPH is a controversial clinical entity in the literature [8,9].

Rhinogenic contact point headache (RCPH) is included among the secondary forms of the Headache Classification Subcom- mittee of the International Headache Society [1]. RCPH is defined as a syndrome secondary to mucosal contact points in the nasal sinus cav- ities, in the absence of inflammatory signs, hyperplastic mucosa, puru- lent discharge, sinonasal polyps, or tumors [4–6]. However, the pathology remains debated in the literature, especially because of its diagnostic setting and therapeutic options [7].
