We studied a 14-year-old boy with episodes of elementary visual hallucinations, blindness, and headache. Electroencephalogram (EEG) showed continuous spike and slow-wave activity, which was confined to the posterior regions; this was related to eyes closed or darkness, but it was inhibited when the
Hemiplegic migraines are characterised by attacks of migraine with aura accompanied by transient motor weakness. There are both familial and sporadic subtypes, which are now recognised as separate entities by the International Classification of Headache Disorders, edition II (ICHD-II). Sporadic
Fourty epileptic and 66 migraine patients were examined. The differences in clinical features of headache paroxysms, consciousness disorders, psycho-sensory++, viscero-autonomic++ and affective spells were determined. The elements of confused consciousness, short-lived and local autonomic responses
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study is to investigate the frequency and characteristics of migraine and seizure-related headache (SRH) according to the criteria of the International Headache Society.
METHODS
A questionnaire was undertaken at the initial evaluation of newly referred patients from 32
BACKGROUND
The relationship of ictal and post-ictal cephalic pain to migraine remains debatable. We hereby report 2 patients, a 27-year-old woman and 41-year-old man were referred for assessment of migraine of 10 years and 4 years duration, respectively. The man described a recent episode of "vacant
OBJECTIVE
To discuss the use of an upper cervical technique in the case of a 23-year-old male patient with rapid-cycling bipolar disorder, sleep disorder, seizure disorder, neck and back pain, and migraine headaches.
METHODS
The patient participated in a high school track meet at age 17, landing on
Migraine and epilepsy are highly comorbid, but the nature of their association remains unclear. Exceptionally, reversible brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities following migraine and seizures have been reported. There are no descriptions, however, of patients with recurrent brain MRI
BACKGROUND
The high prevalence of patent foramen ovale in migraine with aura (MWA) seems to be well established; yet, the possible relation between the magnitude of the right-to-left shunt (RLS) and MWA is not so clear. As a hypothesis, if the RLS played a precipitating role, subjects with a larger
The complex relationship between migraine and epilepsy is highlighted by the occurrence of a seizure during a migraine attack without aura. This phenomenon, referred to as migralepsy, suggests an inherent overlap in the underlying pathophysiology of these events. We report the case of a patient who
Seventy-seven patients suffering from childhood onset absence epilepsy as well as their families were investigated for familial prevalences of epileptic seizures and migraine. Proceeding from the whole sample, epileptic seizures seemed to occur more often in the families of female propositi, though
Three cases are reported in which symptoms of occipital seizures resembled the visual aura of migraine. Careful recording of the characteristics and timing of such visual effects will often resolve the diagnostic dilemma.
We hypothesized and found that the co-occurrence of migraine with aura (MA) with major depression (MD) or with suicide attempt (SA) increases the risk for developing unprovoked seizure more than these conditions alone. Number of conditions showed a linear relationship to seizure risk. This may
Headache is a common presenting complaint in the paediatric population, with often migraine being a clinical diagnosis. Hemiplegic migraine is characterised by aura, sudden onset weakness of one side of the body which usually recovers without any residual neurological deficit. We report a child with
We report three patients with visual hallucinations as the initial manifestations of neurocysticercosis (NCC) in whom migraine was the first diagnosis. The correct diagnosis was suspected when electroencephalograms were abnormal and was confirmed by characteristic brain imaging. The visual
OBJECTIVE
Clinical observations suggest that psychogenic non-epileptic seizure (PNES) patients often have severe migraine, more severe than epilepsy patients. Investigations into migraine characteristics in patients with PNES are lacking. In this study we tested the hypothesis that, compared to
