Headache afflicts approximately 10%-15% of the general population. Mixed results are obtained from various therapies, usually drugs, but also oxygen inhalation, behavioral psychology, physical therapy, and peripheral or central neurostimulation. When refractory to treatment, it has severe
A case of spontaneous, atraumatic subdural haematoma involving thoracic region in a 78-year-old woman on an anticoagulant therapy (Warfarin) for atrial fibrillation presented. This patient initially presented with sudden onset headache and giddiness (signs of increased intracranial pressure)
OBJECTIVE
A group of young patients presenting with cerebral ischemic events, endocardial lesions, and lupus anticoagulant is described in order to highlight the common clinical laboratory features.
METHODS
Fourteen consecutive patients (10 females, age range 17 to 53 years [mean 38 years]) at onset
There are potential concerns regarding serotonin receptor agonists in SLE patients with migraine, particularly patients with concomitant Raynaud's syndrome. We estimated the prevalence of lupus-related headache and Raynaud's syndrome in the Montreal General Hospital SLE clinic cohort and evaluated
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the prevalence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and abnormalities of haemostasis in children and adolescents with migraine with aura (MA) compared with peers affected by other idiopathic headaches.
METHODS
We recruited 20 MA patients (10 men and 10 women; age range 8-17 years)
A 75-year-old man with a history of atrial fibrillation (AF) and anticoagulant therapy presented with a headache. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) was diagnosed after MRI of the brain revealed cortical superficial siderosis, lobar intracerebral hemorrhage, and lobar microbleeds. Anticoagulant
Postpartum cerebral vein thrombosis is a very rare entity (3-4 cases per million). Clinical manifestations vary, though persistent headache is almost always reported, meaning that differential diagnosis should be performed to rule out other causes of postpartum headache. Recognized risk factors for
A 29-year-old man with ulcerative colitis was admitted to our hospital because of convulsions and a headache. Before admission, oral prednisolone had been administered due to his ulcerative colitis relapse. Computed tomography revealed a low-density area in the right frontal pole suggestive of a
Chronic cluster headache remains refractory to medical therapy in at least 30% of those who suffer from this condition. The lack of alternative medical therapies that are as effective as, or more effective than, lithium carbonate makes new therapies necessary for this highly disabling condition.
BACKGROUND
Nummular headache (NH) is currently considered a form of peripheral neuralgia originating from the terminal branch in epicranial tissue but its etiopathogenesis is still unknown. Since autoimmune disorders often involve the trigeminosensory nerve to provoke craniofacial pain, we
Cluster headache (CH) is considered a primary headache syndrome. However, symptomatic cases that resemble CH have also been reported. A patient with cerebral venous thrombosis presented with ipsilateral frontal pain accompanied by ophthalmoparesis, nasal congestion, and lacrimation. The patient's

To describe a case of superior sagittal sinus thrombosis in the puerperal period and the difficulties encountered in the diagnosis and management.
METHODS
A 29-yr-old multiparous woman presented with a postural headache four weeks after a normal pregnancy and vigorous delivery. Initial
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) can be difficult to diagnose because of its wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. In the present article, we report a 58-year-old man coming to our emergency department presenting with left temporal throbbing headache and right hemianopia. Computed tomography of
The alterations of the cerebral venous circulation are a rare but clinically important cause of headache. Although any process involving the cerebral veins or sinuses may cause headache, the most frequent and important are cerebral venous thrombosis and idiopathic intracranial hypertension. The
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) may represent the clinical onset of malignancies or complicate their course, also in phase of quiescence. In literature, there are several case reports on the association between CVT and tumors, but there are few articles on its clinical characteristics in cancer
