Pediatric migraines: a case report.
Migraines are a common problem faced by the pediatrician. It can be difficult to determine the difference between a common headache and a migraine in young children. This case report will review a case that presented to the neurologist's office, then discuss the epidemiology, pathophysiology, classification of migraine, migraine variants, clinical evaluation, differential diagnosis, and treatment of migraines in a pediatric population.
