Sažetak
We report a rare occurrence of ophthalmoplegic migraine and transient global amnesia in a family with several members suffering from migraine. A 65-year-old woman has been suffering from recurrent attacks of migrainous headache (according to HIS criteria) since she was 30. The attacks became far rarer when she reached menopause. She has undergone hospital treatment three times, the last in 1996.On all three occasions, the patient was hospitalised with severe headache (right location) of pulsing quality with ipsilatateral ptosis and double vision. The patient’ s son , a 40-year-old man, has been suffering from migraine without aura (according to HIS criteria) since he was 24. In 1997, he was hospitalised because of migrainous headache accompanied with behavior disorder manifested as constant repeating of the same questions. The examination revealed amnesia for a period of 5 h. During each hospitalization, the female patient had ptosis of the right eyelid and lesions of the third, fourth and sixth cranial nerve on the same side. Each time her headaches lasted more than 6 days, while the ptosis lasted from 2 to 5 weeks, when lesions of the cranial nerves completely recovered. The results of clinical findings including brain CT and MRI scan and phlebography of the right orbit were normal. The son’ s neurological examination was normal, except the transient loss of memory of recent events and permanent amnesia for events during the period of 5 h. EEG , brain CT scan, echocardiography and biochemical studies were normal. Our report supports the hypothesis of possibly the same pathophysiologic origin of ophthalmoplegic migraine and transient global amnesia.
