Migraine is a neurological entity and a well-known independent risk factor for cerebral infarction, which mostly afflicts the young female population. Researching focal neurological signs in this subset of the population with the diagnosis of a neurological ischemic event should always take into account the migraine as the etiology or as an associated factor. The etiology of central nervous system (CNS) ischemia is considerable. Migraine, although rare, also may be included in this vast etiological range, which is called migrainous infarction. In this setting, the diagnostic criteria required for this diagnosis is extensive. Herein, we present the case of a female adolescent who submitted to the emergency facility complaining of diplopia, dysarthria, and imbalance, which started concomitantly with a migrainous crisis with aura-a challenging clinical case that required extensive research to address all possible differential diagnoses.
偏头痛是一种神经病症,也是脑梗死的一个众所周知的独立危险因素,该病多见于年轻女性群体。对于诊断为神经缺血性事件的这部分人群,研究局灶性神经体征时应始终将偏头痛视为病因或相关因素。中枢神经系统(CNS)缺血的病因多种多样。偏头痛虽然罕见,但也可能包含在这个广泛的病因范围内,这被称为偏头痛性脑梗死。在这种情况下,该诊断所需的诊断标准较为宽泛。在此,我们介绍一例女性青少年病例,该患者因出现复视、构音障碍和平衡失调而前往急诊室就诊,这些症状与伴有先兆的偏头痛发作同时出现——这是一个具有挑战性的临床病例,需要进行广泛的研究以排除所有可能的鉴别诊断。
