Migraine
1. Migraine
UTMB Department of
Otolaryngology
Grand Rounds March 2005
Jeffrey Buyten, MD
David C. Teller, MD
Francis B. Quinn, MD
2. Prevalence
Familial
Young, healthy women; F>M: 3:1
– 17 – 18.2% of adult females
– 6 – 6.5% adult males
2-3rd decade onset… can occur sooner
Peaks ages 22-55.
½ migraine sufferers not diagnosed.
94% pt’s seen in primary care settings for
HA have migraines
3. Common misdiagnoses
for migraine:
– Sinus HA
– Stress HA
Referral to ENT for sinus
disease and facial pain.
4. Migraineurs more likely to have
motion sickness.
Half of Meniere’s patients claim to
have migrainous symptoms.
BPPV
5. $13 billion/year in lost
productivity
1/3 participants in
American Migraine Study
II missed work in prior 3
months
6. Migraine Definition
IHS criteria: Migraine/aura (3 out of 4) IHS Diagnostic criteria: migraine w/o
– One or more fully reversible aura aura
symptoms indicates focal cerebral – HA lasting for 4-72 hrs
cortical or brainstem dysfunction. – HA w/2+ of following:
– At least one aura symptom Unilateral
develops gradually over more than Pulsating
4 minutes.
Mod/severe intensity.
– No aura symptom lasts more than
one hour. Aggravated by routine
– HA follows aura w/free interval of physical activity.
less than one hour and may begin – During HA at least 1 of following
before or w/aura. N/V
Photophobia
Phonophobia
History, PE, Neuro exam show no other organic
disease.
At least five attacks occur
7. Migraine Subtypes
Basilar type migraine
– Dysarthria, vertigo,
diplopia, tinnitus,
decreased hearing, ataxia,
bilateral paresthesias,
altered consciousness.
– Simultaneous bilateral
visual symptoms.
– No muscular weakness.
Retinal or ocular migraine
– Repeated monocular
scotomata or blindness < 1
hr
– Associated with or followed
by a HA
8. Migraine Subtypes
Menstrual migraine
Hemiplegic migraine
– Unilateral motor and
sensory symptoms
that may persist after
the headache.
– Complete recover
Familial hemiplegic
migraine
9. Migrainous vertigo
Vertigo – sole or prevailing symptom.
Benign paroxysmal vertigo of childhood.
Prevalence 7-9% of pts in referral dizzy
and migraine clinics.
Not recognized by the IHS
Diagnosis (proposed criteria)
– Recurrent episodic vestibular symptoms of
at least moderate severity.
– One of the following:
Current of previous history of IHS migraine.
Migrainous symptoms during two or more
attacks of vertigo.
Migraine-precipitants before vertigo in more
than 50% of attacks.
– Response to migraine medications in more
than 50% of attacks
10. Migraine mechanism
Neurovascular theory.
– Abnormal brainstem
responses.
– Trigemino-vascular system.
Calcitonin gene related
peptide
Neurokinin A
Substance P
Extracranial arterial vasodilation.
– Temporal
– Pulsing pain.
Extracranial neurogenic
inflammation.
Decreased inhibition of central
pain transmission.
– Endogenous opioids.
11. Important role in
migraine
pathogenesis.
Mechanism of action
in migraines not well
established.
Main target of
pharmacotherapy.
12. Aura Mechanism
Cortical spreading depression
– Self propagating wave of neuronal and glial depolarization across the
cortex
Activates trigeminal afferents
– Causes inflammation of pain sensitive meninges that generates
HA through central/peripheral reflexes.
Alters blood-brain barrier.
– Associated with a low flow state in the dural sinuses.
13. Auras
– Vision – most common
neurologic symptom
– Paresthesia of lips, lower
face and fingers… 2nd most
common
– Typical aura
Flickering uncolored
zigzag line in center and
then periphery
Motor – hand and arm on
one side
Auras (visual, sensory,
aphasia) – 1 hr
Prodrome
– Lasts hours to days…
14. Clinical manifestations
Clinical manifestations
– Lateralized in severe attacks –
60-70%
– Bifrontal/global HA – 30%
– Gradual onset with crescendo
pattern.
– Limits activity due to its
intensity.
– Worsened by rapid head
motion, sneezing, straining,
constant motion or exertion.
– Focal facial pain, cutaneous
allodynia, GI dysfunction,
facial flushing, lacrimation,
rhinorrhea, nasal congestion
and vertigo…
18. Abortive care strategies
Stepped
– Start with lower level drugs, then switch to more specific drugs if
symptoms persist or worsen.
Analgesics – Tylenol, NSAIDs…
Vasoconstrictors – sympathomimetics…
Opioids (try to avoid) - Butorphanol
Triptans – sumatriptan (oral, SQ, nasal), naratriptan, rizatripatan,
zomatriptan.
– Limited by patient compliance.
Stratified
– Adjusts treatment according to symptom intensity.
Mild – analgesics, NSAIDs
Moderate – analgesic plus caffeine/sympathomimetic
Severe – opioids, triptans, ergots…
– Severe sx treatment limited due to concomitant GI sx’s.
Staged
– Bases treatment on intensity and time of attacks.
– HA diary reviewed with patient.
– Medication plan and backup plans.
19. Preventive therapy
Consider if pt has more than 3-4
episodes/month.
Reduces frequency by 40 – 60%.
Breakthrough headaches easier to abort.
Beta blockers
Amitriptyline
Calcium channel blockers
Lifestyle modification.
Biofeedback.
20. Botox
51% migraineurs treated
had complete prophylaxis
for 4.1 months.
38% had prophylaxis for 2.7
months.
Randomized trial showed
significant improvement
in headache frequency
with multiple treatments.
21. Conclusions
Migraine is common but unrecognized.
Keep migraine and its variants in the
differential diagnosis.
