METHODS
A 41-year-old man presented with a 3-month history of side-locked attacks

Cluster headache is a rare but very typical disease. Too often, however, the correct diagnosis is made only after several years of patient suffering, while adequate treatment is readily available. Two patients, men aged 29 and 45 years, showed a good picture of the typical features: excruciating,
To investigate the prevalence of sleep disorders and their symptoms in children with headaches, 64 patients in the outpatient clinics of the University of Chicago Department of Pediatric Neurology were interviewed. Investigated disorders included excessive daytime sleepiness, narcolepsy, insomnia,

OBJECTIVE
