[Complicated migraine in children (author's transl)].
444 children and adolescents (266 boys, 178 girls) were examined because of migraine at the Department of Pediatric Neurology of the University Children's Hospital, Frankfurt/Main between 1967 and 1980. 378 of these had common and/or classical migraine, 66 complicated migraine. Family history, sex and age at onset in these two groups are compared. Based on this material (4 cases of ophthalmoplegic, 49 of hemiplegic and 13 of basilar artery migraine) clinical features, EEG findings angiographic and CAT-findings of these different forms of complicated migraine are discussed and demonstrated by typical case reports. The importance of basilar artery migraine even in childhood and the mainly poor prognosis of its special type of early onset- "alternating hemiplegia" - are stressed.
