Extractions: Homepage Most migraines seen in physicians' offices are migraine without aura (formerly called "common migraine") and migraine with aura (formerly called "classic migraine" by some). Migraine aura without headache is also quite common, and is seen often by ophthalmologists. Neurologists and headache specialists often treat status migrainosus, characterized by a headache phase of over 72 hours. The other migraine types are listed in the left side bar and are fully described in the Headache Classification Committee's classification (1988).

Extractions: 1.3 OPHTHALMOPLEGIC MIGRAINE 1.4 RETINAL MIGRAINE RETURN 1.3 OPHTHALMOPLEGIC MIGRAINE Description: Repeated attacks of headache associated with paresis of one or more ocular cranial nerves in the absence of demonstrable intracranial lesion. Other cranial nerves may be involved and the following conditions should be considered: NOTE: The fact that this syndrome may involve the oculomotor nerves and the ophthalmic division of the 5th nerve suggests that the anatomic localization of the lesion may be close to the cavernous sinus. Angiographic evidence of constriction of the internal carotic artery in the region of the cavernous sinus has been demonstrated in a few patients during attacks of this headache. Diagnostic Criteria: At least 2 attacks fulfilling B. Headache overlapping with paresis of one or more of cranial nerves III, IV, and VI. Parasellar lesion ruled out by appropriate investigations.

Extractions: Classification of Headache Robert L. Merrill, DDS, MS Adjunct Associate Professor UCLA School of Dentistry Most of the research work published in the past was difficult to interpret because there were no clearly defined criteria established for the diagnosis of different types of headache. This problem was addressed by the International Headache Society (IHS) in 1988 when the "Classification and Diagnostic Criteria for Headache Disorders, Cranial Neuralgias and Facial Pain" was published. All the publications subsequent to that have relied on these criteria for the diagnosis of various headache syndromes. A familiarity with this classification will be worthwhile. Some aspects of the classification and diagnostic criteria will be detailed in the following sections. 13 general groupings of headache disorders Migraine Tension-type Headache Cluster Headache and Chronic Paroxysmal Hemicrania Miscellaneous headaches unassociated with structural lesions Headache associated with head trauma Headache associated with vascular disorders. Headache associated with non-vascular intracranial disorder Headache associated with substances or their withdrawal Headache associated with non-cephalic infections.

Extractions: The IHS code is 1.4 for retinal migraine. A short description from the Headache Classification Committee is the following: repeated attacks of monocular scotoma or blindness lasting less than one hour and associated with headache. Other ocular or structural vascular disorder must be ruled out. Additional terms include: ocular migraine, anterior visual pathway migraine, and ophthalmic migraine. This condition may be broadly defined as a transient or permanent monocular visual disturbance accompanying a migraine attack or occurring in an individual with a strong history of migrainous episodes. Retinal migraine occurs more frequently than ophthalmoplegic migraine. We estimate the frequency of strictly monocular visual phenomena occurring in conjunction with migraine to be one of 200 migraine sufferers. Frequently, however, homonymous visual field phenomena in migraineurs is incorrectly attributed to a single eye. For example, a patient with transient right homonymous hemianopia might think that the right eye is affected, because normally the right temporal hemifield is 30-40 degrees larger than the left nasal hemifield.

Extractions: HeadachePainfree.Com Migraine has been part of recorded history for more than five thousand years. Though the word migraine is a French term, it traces back to the Greek hemicrania to describe one of migraine's distinguishing features: pain on one side (hemi) of the head (cranium). But anyone who has had migraines knows that head pain is just one of several symptoms that occur before or along with the headache and migraine pain is not always one-sided. Migraine is most often a syndrome including one or more symptoms that either coexist or build up progressively over time. For example many, but not all, people are warned of impending headache by neurological (brain-related) disturbances called auras . Headache experts divide the migraine pupulation into two major groups: those who have migraine with aura (formerly Classic Migraine), and those who have migraine without aura (formerly Common Migraine). Only about 10 to 20 percent of migraine sufferers have auras.

Migraine variants (MVs) generally are paroxysmal disorders, which include either headache as a prominent feature among a collection of symptoms or occurrence in individuals who have a personal or family history of migraine. MVs occur more frequently in children and adolescents than in adults; they may precede the development of more typical migraines in adulthood. MVs are less recognized, less understood, and far less common than migraines; consequently, little population-based data are available describing the incidence or prevalence of MVs. Few randomized, controlled trials exist that describe efficacious treatments for these unusual entities. Recognition of MV is important, since many respond to typical antimigraine medications. Also, the clinical presentation of MV may suggest ominous disease processes which can lead to extensive and invasive diagnostic evaluations that may not be warranted. MVs include the following: Familial hemiplegic migraine Basilar migraine Benign coital headache Ophthalmoplegic migraine Retinal migraine Alternating hemiplegic migraine (primarily in childhood)
