Childhood steroid-responsive ophthalmoplegic migraine

Abstract
Ophthalmoplegic migraine (OM) is characterized by recurrent attacks of headache with paresis of ocular cranial nerves. Previously, it was classified as a variant of migraine, but recently, International Headache Classification (IHCD-II) has reclassified OM to the category of neuralgia. Presently, OM is considered a type of recurrent demyelinating cranial neuropathy. We report an adolescent girl with OM, who had been treated with steroid and showed dramatic improvement.
Keywords: Demyelinating cranial neuropathy; migraine; neuralgia; ophthalmoplegia.
