title: [The neurologic differential diagnosis of unilateral headache and facial pain].
abstract: The most frequent and relevant neurologic causes of unilateral headache and facial pain are discussed. Symptomatic headache syndromes, caused by an underlying neurologic disease or structural lesion, are distinguished from idiopathic (essential) pain syndromes, which are characterized by a typical clinical presentation and the absence of a known etiology or pathogenesis.
