- Title
Sporadic Hemiplegic Migraine With Permanent Neurological Deficits.
- Authors
Schwedt, Todd J.; Zhou, Jiying; Dodick, David W.
- Abstract
By definition, the neurologic impairments of hemiplegic migraine are reversible. However, a few cases of permanent neurologic deficits associated with hemiplegic migraine have been reported. Herein, we present the case of a patient with permanent impairments because of hemiplegic migraine despite normalization of associated brain magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities. Cases like these suggest the need to consider aggressive prophylactic therapy for patients with recurrent hemiplegic migraine attacks.
