The Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is characterized by recurrent periods of painful ophthalmoplegia, dramatically ameliorated by steroid treatment. In half of the cases orbital phlebography shows characteristic changes. Ninety-six patients with orbital pain characteristic of the Tolosa-Hunt syndrome were
Vasculitis is a spectrum of clinicopathologic disorders defined by inflammation of arteries of veins of varying caliber with variable tissue injury. Headache may be an important clue to vasculitic involvement of central nervous system (CNS) vessels. CNS vasculitis may be primary, in which only
Vasculitis is a spectrum of clinicopathologic disorders defined by inflammation of systemic and central nervous system (CNS)arteries and veins of differing caliber with variable tissue injury. At the onset of systemic vasculitis, headache can occur in association with constitutional symptoms without
Background Retinal migraine is an important differential diagnosis of recurrent transient monocular blindness accompanied by headache when other etiologies are excluded. Here, we report a case of orbital vasculitis which initially mimicked retinal migraine. Case report A 47-year-old woman had

There was a long standing history of right predominant headache; followed by personality change, fatigue, arthralgia and weight loss over the last few months.

Background: Listeria monocytogenes is an opportunistic pathogen that causes severe infections of the Central Nervous System, such as meningitis or meningoencephalitis, and brain abscesses. Abscesses account for approximately 1-10% of CNS
Vasospasm is a rare cause of cerebrovascular disease except following subarachnoid haemorrhage. We describe a woman who developed an explosive-type sex headache, followed by a series of severe migrainous headaches associated with fully reversible segmental cerebral arterial narrowing and dilatation,
Isolated central nervous system (CNS) vasculitis is rare medium- sized vessel disease limited to intracerebral vessels. The two most common symptoms of this inflammatory disorder observed at entry to a hospital are headaches and mild memory deficits. Further progression of this disease may result in
A 36-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was admitted to our hospital due to increasing disease SLE activity. Despite the intensification of immunosuppressive treatment, headache newly developed and worsened. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed spreading of
