    Summary

    Migraine accompagnée, a severe migraine type, can cause temporary neurological deficits like Jacksonian seizures. This case study highlights a patient experiencing these symptoms, emphasizing the need for thorough diagnosis to rule out other conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • Migraine accompagnée is characterized by transient neurological deficits during migraine attacks.
    • Current theories link these focal signs to transient ischemic events in cerebral vasculature.

    Observation:

    • A 24-year-old woman experienced severe migraine with three Jacksonian attacks and diverse cerebrovascular neurological signs.
    • She had a history of migraine with familial links and presented with mental anomalies.

    Findings:

    • Computerized tomography revealed a frontal-paramedial area with indistinct borders, lacking contrast enhancement.
    • All neurological symptoms, including Jacksonian attacks, resolved over time.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering migraine accompagnée in patients with complex neurological symptoms during a migraine attack.

  • Extensive diagnostic workup, including angiography, is crucial to exclude other pathologies and confirm the diagnosis.
