Abstract:
Six patients with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH) and 10 patients with hemicrania continua (HC), two indomethacin-responsive, unilateral, headache syndromes, were investigated with orbital phlebography and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. Orbital phlebography apparently showed pathological findings more frequently in CPH than in HC. Such abnormalities did not always show preference for the side of headache. MR scans were grossly normal in these headaches.
