title: [Does multiple sclerosis facilitate migraine].
abstract: Known comorbidities for migraine are affective disorders. Only few studies exist which explore migraine as comorbidity in a given diagnosis. The aim of our study is to determine the frequency of the comorbidity "migraine" subject to a given diagnosis. Out of 2562 observations comorbidity "migraine" was diagnosed with a frequency of 16.2 % when an affective disorder was diagnosed. In multiple sclerosis and epilepsy, migraine as comorbidity was diagnosed in 15 % and 9.6 %, respectively. Migraine in patients with Parkinson's disease is rare. The correlation between affective disorders and epilepsies is known, but the high frequency of migraine in multiple sclerosis should be taken into account when diagnosing central demyelinating disorders.
