Brief Summary:
Headache is a very common main complaint of patients with GH pituitary tumor, which has seriously affected the normal work and life of patients. Although the current surgery and drugs have a certain effect on patients with headache, the overall effect is not satisfied. However, the use of COX-2 inhibitors, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other analgesics are only effective for some patients with headaches, and long-term use has adverse reactions. Therefore, it is necessary to seek new treatments for postoperative headaches in patients with GH pituitary tumors. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) modulates the excitability of the underlying cerebral cortex by applying a rapidly changing magnetic field on the surface of the scalp. It is a relatively simple and safe method. It is currently approved for treating depression, migraine, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and Alzheimer's disease. Several small clinical studies have proven that rTMS can be used to prevent and treat Headache. Therefore, this study aims to observe the efficacy and safety of TMS in the treatment of postoperative headache in patients with GH pituitary tumors.
