Abstract

Complicated migraine is regarded as a cerebrovascular syndrome of functional character. In the case of a young man with cervical migraine associated with paroxysmal neurological disorders and persisting EEG abnormalities, stellate ganglion blocks were performed under EEG control. A transient amelioration of the pathological EEG pattern was observed after each stellate ganglion block and after several treatments the EEG was normal and the migraine attacks disappeared. The pathophysiology of the effect of stellate ganglion block on cerebral blood flow is discussed.
