The present study was undertaken to investigate whether headache in women with nonpuerperal hyperprolactinemia was related to elevated serum prolactin (PRL) levels or the presence of a PRL-secreting pituitary adenoma. The subjects were 469 women seen initially during the period of 1973 to 1979 at
Short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT) syndrome is a rare trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia. The cases of SUNCT with attacks that affected both sides simultaneously have only rarely been reported and some of them had underlying pathology. We
Headache is a common and disabling aspect of pituitary disease. Chronic and episodic migraine are the most common clinical syndromes of headaches related to pituitary tumors, although other types of headache, such as trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (TACs), can also be present. TACs include
We present a 25 year-old man with episodic cluster headache that was refractory to all standard pharmacological prophylactic and abortive treatments. Because of the lack of response, an MRI brain was performed which showed a large pituitary tumour with ipsilateral cavernous sinus invasion. The serum
Cluster-like headache may be associated with pituitary tumors, mostly prolactinomas. Pituitary imaging and prolactin measurement should be assessed in patients presenting with cluster-like headaches with atypical features or unsatisfactory response to treatment. Furthermore, large pituitary adenomas
Objective: Cluster-like headache (CLH) associated with pituitary adenoma (PA) is rare. Although numerous cases have been reported, no summary of the literature has been published. Furthermore, the mechanism and efficacy of medication in
Short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT) syndrome may be associated with pituitary prolactinoma and may be induced by treatment of prolactinoma with dopamine agonists. Endocrinologists treating patients with prolactinoma need to be aware of this
We reported a rare case of a dialysis patient coincident pituitary prolactinoma with calcification. A 55-year-old woman who had undergone hemodialysis for 8 years was admitted to the nephrology unit because of headache, blurred vision, and hypotension. Physical examination was normal;
We report a patient with headaches meeting the criteria of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania, as defined by the International Headache Society classification. Headaches were fully responsive to indomethacin during the first 3 months of treatment but recurred when daily doses were lowered. Investigations
We report a case of cluster headache in a patient with a macroprolactinoma. Symptomatic cluster headache was suspected because of an unsatisfactory response to medications that are usually effective in idiopathic cluster headache. The neurological examination was normal. However, magnetic resonance
Headache is a common problem in patients with pituitary tumours. Small pituitary lesions can cause debilitating headache, suggesting that the size of the pituitary tumour may not be the only causal factor in pituitary-related headache. We present two cases of prolactinoma-associated headache. The
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this article is to investigate the phenotype and etiology of prolactinoma-associated headache as well as present and discuss the plausible pain-relieving effect of dopamine agonist treatment.
METHODS
In this case-based audit we included 11 patients with prolactinomas and one
While headache is not an uncommon symptom in patients suffering from pituitary adenomas, cluster headache (CH) has rarely been reported in such cases. Headache associated with hyperprolactinemia has been reported to be responsive to dopamine agonists (DA agonists) in many patients. We report on a
A 17-year-old boy without a significant past medical history presented with recurrent cluster-like headaches induced by meals for 3 years. Magnetic resonance images showed a pituitary tumor. Just after starting treatment with cabergoline, the headaches resolved completely and the patient has been
