Migraine and epilepsy: a focus on overlapping clinical, pathophysiological, molecular, and therapeutic aspects.
The association of epilepsy and migraine has been long recognized. Migraine and epilepsy are both chronic disorders with episodic attacks. Furthermore, headache may be a premonitory or postdromic symptom of seizures, and migraine headaches may cause seizures per se (migralepsy). Migraine and epilepsy are comorbid, sharing pathophysiological mechanisms and common clinical features. Several recen...
متن کاملThe genetic relationship between epilepsy and hemiplegic migraine
Epilepsy and migraine are common diseases of the nervous system and share genetic and pathophysiological mechanisms. Familial hemiplegic migraine is an autosomal dominant disease. It is often used as a model of migraine. Four genes often contain one or more mutations in both epilepsy and hemiplegic migraine patients (ie, CACNA1A, ATP1A2, SCN1A, and PRRT2). A better understanding of the shared g...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Migraine and Tension Type Headaches among Epileptic Patients
Background: Headache and epilepsy are two common chronic and recurrent disorders. Headache may be a premonitory or postdromic symptom of epileptic seizures. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of migraine and tension type headache in epileptic patients. Materials and Methods: In a cross-sectional descriptive study, 100 patients with epilepsy who referred to the neurology clini...
متن کاملA review of the genetic relation between migraine and epilepsy.
A possible relation between migraine and epilepsy has been a matter of debate for many decades. Clinical, epidemiological and therapeutic similarities may be coincidental and are no proof of a common aetiological background. However, a genetically determined dysfunction of ion channels seems to point to a common underlying mechanism for both paroxysmal disorders. For example, mutations in the t...
متن کاملHeadache and Epilepsy
Headache, especially migraine, has long been associated with epilepsy, based on the common clinical features of these disorders. Both migraine and epilepsy have a genetic predisposition and share common pathophysiological mechanisms including an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory factors that result in spells of altered brain function and autonomic symptoms. There are well-documented r...
