Headache
|May 1, 1989
Abstract:
It is generally recognized that indomethacin prophylaxis is the treatment of choice in adults with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH). Our case report is the first to demonstrate complete control of CPH in a 9 year-old child using small dose aspirin prophylaxis. This case also represents direct observation of the youngest patient with CPH having the earliest reported onset.
