Two patients with headaches meeting the criteria of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania, as defined by the International Headache Society classification, are presented. Further investigations revealed a parasellar pituitary microadenoma in the first patient and a maxillary cyst in the second. Surgical
The first patient with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania has been followed for 45 years, and for 33 years with indomethacin treatment. The headache became less severe with time; there was no indomethacin tachyphylaxis. The first patient with SUNCT was followed for 28 years, until his demise at 89. Pain
Paroxysmal hemicrania (PH) is a rare primary headache disorder, especially among children. We describe herein a case with the shortest course of pediatric PH among previously reported cases, and the first case report of Japanese pediatric PH. An 11-year-old boy was referred to our clinic by his
OBJECTIVE
To describe two cases of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania manifested by otalgia with a sensation of external acoustic meatus obstruction and to suggest that the trigeminal-autonomic reflex is a mechanism for the sensation of ear blockage.
BACKGROUND
Maximum pain in chronic paroxysmal
Two teenage girls with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania demonstrated dramatic yet incomplete improvement with indomethacin. Verapamil monotherapy provided nearly complete cessation of headaches.
Chronic paroxysmal Hemicrania (CPH) is a headache syndrome first described in 1974. Since then about 60 cases have been reported in the world literature. CPH is characterised by headache attacks occurring daily and always strictly unilaterally. The frequency of the attacks varies from 5 to 30 per 24
Episodic paroxysmal hemicrania (EPH) is a rare, benign disorder characterized by discrete bouts of hemicranial headaches separated by periods of pain-free remissions. EPH is frequently mistaken for episodic cluster headache because they have similar temporal profiles and clinical features. EPH is
Paroxysmal hemicrania (PH) is a trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia, a rare primary headache characterized by unilateral periorbital and/or temporal attacks of severe intensity and short duration. In this situation, the determination of a correct diagnosis is crucial for the establishment of a proper
A 25-year-old patient presented with clinical characteristics of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania which failed to respond to indomethacin 300 mg daily. Total relief of headaches was obtained with acetazolamide 250 mg t.i.d.
Facial temperature was measured thermographically and pupillary diameter recorded photographically during and between episodes of headache and during spontaneous remission of headache in a patient with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH). Heat loss from the orbit, nose, cheek and temple was 0.75-1.5
We report the case of a 17-year-old boy presenting with a history of recurrent episodes of isolated visual aura later followed infrequently by indomethacin-responsive headache attacks resembling paroxysmal hemicrania.
Discontinuation of indomethacin in chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH) usually causes relapse of symptoms within a few days. A patient with characteristic symptoms of CPH is reported. The patient had daily attacks of unilateral headache accompanied by ipsilateral lacrimation and conjunctival
A 45-year-old woman, who had been diagnosed in our unit with episodic paroxysmal hemicrania, was seen 2 years later for ipsilateral hemicrania continua in remitting form. Both types of headache had a complete response to indomethacin and did not occur simultaneously. The patient had a previous
Attacks of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania are prevented by the continuous administration of indomethacin. Sumatriptan, an agonist of 5-HT1-like receptors, has proven effective in the treatment of cluster headache attacks. There are clear clinical similarities between chronic paroxysmal hemicrania and
Ten patients suffering from cluster headache or variants of cluster headache were made to inhale oxygen in an attempt to check these attacks. This treatment proved a success with six patients with classic ("episodic") cluster headache, as well as with another patient suffering from secondary chronic
