We assessed the prevalence of headache and psychosocial stress in a group of patients with cerebral ischemia and evaluated hemostatic function in these patients. Headache and preceding psychosocial stress were present in one-third and one-half, respectively, of patients capable of providing an
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of nimodipine on non-migrainous vascular headache in patients with chronic cerebral ischemia. Eighty-six patients were examined in a double-blind trial for 16 weeks (12 weeks of nimodipine or placebo, followed by a 4-week placebo period). Fifty-six
The authors describe manifestations of chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI) and present the cases of a combination of primary headache and CCI. Management of patients with CCI and headache and the use of vazobral and its efficacy in treatment of such patients are discussed.
OBJECTIVE
Acute cerebral ischemia is frequently associated with headache. It is unknown whether concomitant headache reflects a partly different pathogenesis, and thus, may influence long-term prognosis after stroke. Here, we compared the long-term risk of recurrent vascular events in patients in
A retrospective study was conducted on a young adults population affected by permanent symptoms of cerebral focal ischemia. Within 6 years, 24 patients between the ages of twenty and fifty were admitted to the Neurological and Medical department of our Hospital because of cerebral ischemic stroke.
We studied headache features in 3,126 patients with acute cerebral or retinal ischemia. Headache occurred in 18% of these patients (in 16% of all patients with transient ischemic attacks, in 18% of patients with reversible ischemic neurologic deficits, and in 19% of patients with minor strokes) and
Migraine is episodic, paroxysmal disorder where the headache represents the central symptom and is followed with different combinations of neurologic, gastrointestinal and vegetative changes. Not until the diagnostic procedures were developed, ischemic lesions were verified even in the patients with
BACKGROUND
Altered cerebral vasomotor reactivity leading to vasospasm can be seen both in patients with primary headache disorders (PHD) and in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The pathogenesis of vasospasm in post-SAH patients and in headache disorder sufferers may be related. To
Lambl's excrescences are filiform structures attached to the edges of cardiac valves and have been associated with stroke. Here we report two patients with Lambl's excrescences who developed migraine-like headaches followed by cerebral infarction. Their Lambl's excrescences were first identified by
BACKGROUND
Several studies were carried out to investigate the occurrence of headache attributed to acute stroke in patients with a lifetime history of migraine.
METHODS
In a case-control series of 96 acute stroke patients with a lifetime history of migraine (M+) and 96 stroke patients without (M-),
Characteristics of brain evoked activity were studied in patients with most frequent variants of secondary headaches: chronic posttraumatic headaches, cervicogenic headaches and vascular headaches in patients with arterial hypertension and chronic brain ischemia. The multimodal registration of
OBJECTIVE
To assess the long-term results of transcatheter patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure on migraine headache with aura (MHA) and on the risk of recurrent stroke.
BACKGROUND
Transcatheter PFO closure is associated with an early improvement of MHA, and a reduction or the risk of recurrent
Patients with acute severe headache may have a secondary form of headache. Standard head computer tomography (CT) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination are often performed in the absence of neurological deficits to exclude subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Increasingly, patients undergo subsequent
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of surgical bypass and to explore the role of transcranial doppler (TCD) during the bypass operation.
METHODS
From March 2003 to February 2008, sixteen patients (4 male and 12 female) with mean age of 32 years old and mean disease course of 7.5 years were treated by
