Abstract
Migrainous infarction is defined as a migraine attack occurring as migraine with aura, typical of the patient's previous attacks, except that one or more aura symptoms persist for >60min, and neuroimaging demonstrates ischemic infarct in the relevant area. To better understand migrainous infarction, one must disentangle the complex interactions between migraine and stroke. In this chapter, we first discuss the migraine-stroke association in sections including "Increased Risks of Stroke and Subclinical Infarcts in Patients With Migraine," "Migrainous Headache Cooccurring or Triggered by Ischemic Stroke," "Stroke Progression in Patients With Migraine," and "Clinic Conditions Associated With Higher Risks of Both Migraine and Stroke." As an extreme example of migraine-stroke association, the annual incidence of migrainous infarction was reported to be 0.80/100,000/year, with the incidence in females nearly twofold that of male patients. Patients diagnosed with migrainous infarction are typically younger (average age 29-39 in case series), have fewer traditional vascular risk factors, and have more favorable prognosis compared to strokes from traditional risk factors. Thorough evaluation is recommended to rule out other etiologies of stroke. Patients diagnosed with migrainous infarction should receive antiplatelet therapy and migraine preventive therapy to avoid future events. Vasoactive medications, including triptans and ergots, should be avoided.
期刊介绍：
The Handbook of Clinical Neurology (HCN) was originally conceived and edited by Pierre Vinken and George Bruyn as a prestigious, multivolume reference work that would cover all the disorders encountered by clinicians and researchers engaged in neurology and allied fields. The first series of the Handbook (Volumes 1-44) was published between 1968 and 1982 and was followed by a second series (Volumes 45-78), guided by the same editors, which concluded in 2002. By that time, the Handbook had come to represent one of the largest scientific works ever published. In 2002, Professors Michael J. Aminoff, François Boller, and Dick F. Swaab took on the responsibility of supervising the third (current) series, the first volumes of which published in 2003. They have designed this series to encompass both clinical neurology and also the basic and clinical neurosciences that are its underpinning. Given the enormity and complexity of the accumulating literature, it is almost impossible to keep abreast of developments in the field, thus providing the raison d''être for the series. The series will thus appeal to clinicians and investigators alike, providing to each an added dimension. Now, more than 140 volumes after it began, the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series has an unparalleled reputation for providing the latest information on fundamental research on the operation of the nervous system in health and disease, comprehensive clinical information on neurological and related disorders, and up-to-date treatment protocols.
