ARROYO, Hugo A.. Migraine and other primary headaches in children and adolescents. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2007, vol.67, n.6, suppl.1, pp.623-630. ISSN 0025-7680.
Migraine diagnosis only relies on clinical characteristics of the episodes and therefore on the doctor's skill and experience. It is recognized that migraine inclusively in the pediatric group is underdiagnosed and inadequately treated. The International Headache Society recently reviewed the international headache classification and incorporated some clinical criteria according to the different age groups. Pediatricians and pediatric neurologists now have a new document and should become familiar with it. This paper discusses these new criteria for migraine and other primary headaches.
