Extractions: ABDOMINAL MIGRAINE Abdominal migraine is one of the variants of migraine headache. It is also known by other terms including "periodic syndrome." This variant most typically occurs in children. They usually have a family history of migraine and go on to develop typical migraine later in their life. The attacks are characterized by periodic bouts of abdominal pain lasting for about two hours. Along with the abdominal pain they may have other symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, flushing or pallor. Tests fail to reveal a cause for the pain. Occasionally there may be EEG findings suggestive of epilepsy but this is rarely related to seizures. Medications that are useful for treating migraine work to control these attacks in most children.

Extractions: Abdominal migraine: A type of migraine, in which the pain is over the upper part of the abdomen and lasts a few hours. It is most common in female children. Diagnosis is easily made because of the family history of migraine, the infrequency of the attacks, and the frequent simultaneous occurrence of headache. If it remains undiagnosed, however, the patient may be subjected to unnecessary surgery for abdominal complaints. Back To Top Aneurysm: A weakness in the blood vessel wall that balloons out and may rupture at some point. Aneurysms rarely cause symptoms before the rupture, unless they are large. They do not mimic the symptoms of migraine or cluster headache. It is vital to discover them before they rupture and have catastrophic consequences such as paralysis or death.

Extractions: Feedback About associated conditions: Associated conditions are those which appear statistically related, but do not have a clear cause or effect relationship. Whereas the complications are caused by Cyclic vomiting syndrome, and underlying causes may be causes of Cyclic vomiting syndrome, the following list shows associated conditions that simply appear with higher frequency in people who have Cyclic vomiting syndrome. In some cases, there may be overlap between this list and risk factors for Cyclic vomiting syndrome. People with Cyclic vomiting syndrome may be more likely to get a condition on the list of associated conditions, or the reverse may be true, or both. Whether they are causes of, caused by, or simply coincidentally related to Cyclic vomiting syndrome is not always clear. For general information, see

Extractions: helpful? yes no Abdominal migraine is an idiopathic disorder seen mainly in children. The symptoms are of recurrent episodes of midline abdominal pain with attacks lasting 1-72 hours and complete normality between episodes. The pain is of moderate to severe intensity and is felt in the midline of the abdomen, usually around the umbilicus, or poorly localised. The attacks of pain are usually accompanied by anorexia and nausea and about half of the patients will vomit with at least some attacks. Marked pallor is commonly noted during the attacks although some patients may appear flushed. The pain is severe enough to interfere with normal daily activities and many children describe their mood during the attack as one of intense misery. The attacks are self limiting and resolve spontaneously and patients are completely well and symptom free between attacks. The onset of attacks of abdominal pain may be at any time of day but occurs most frequently first thing in the morning on waking. Associated symptoms include photophobia (sensitivity to light), phonophobia (sensitivity to sound) and dizziness in many children.

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)
