The sphenopalatine ganglion is an extracranial parasympathetic ganglion found within the pterygopalatine fossa of the skull. First described in the early 1900s, clinical studies have since further characterized the role of sphenopalatine ganglion blockade in the treatment of a number of chronic, painful conditions. This activity discusses the indications and techniques for performing sphenopalatine ganglion blockade and reviews its anatomy.
