This study describes a patient with hemiplegic migraine and abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings, including elevated protein and pleocytosis. A review of similar cases highlights potential links between migraine types and CSF abnormalities.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neuroscience
  • Clinical Medicine

Background:

  • Hemiplegic migraine is a rare subtype of migraine with aura, often associated with neurological deficits.
  • Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is crucial in diagnosing neurological disorders, though typically normal in common migraine types.

Observation:

  • A case of a 30-year-old woman presenting with hemiplegic migraine is detailed.
  • This patient exhibited significant abnormalities in her CSF, including elevated protein levels and pleocytosis (increased white blood cells).

Findings:

  • The case presented adds to a limited number of reported instances of hemiplegic migraine associated with CSF abnormalities.
  • Review of 14 similar literature cases reveals a pattern of cerebrospinal fluid alterations in specific hemiplegic migraine presentations.

Implications:

  • These findings suggest that CSF analysis may be valuable in differentiating complex migraine presentations or identifying underlying inflammatory processes.
  • Further research into the relationship between hemiplegic migraine and cerebrospinal fluid profiles could refine diagnostic criteria and treatment strategies.
