Abstract:
"Hemicrania Continua", first described in 1984, is defined as a steady, non-paroxysmal, unilateral headache absolutely responsive to indomethacin. Four cases clinically compatible with "Hemicrania Continua" are described. All four cases were absolutely resistant to indomethacin treatment. It is concluded that "Hemicrania Continua" is a clinical entity which has an indomethacin-responsive subtype but is not strictly an indomethacin-responsive headache.
