Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: The purpose of this case was to investigate the effectiveness of electroacupuncture for ophthamoplegic migraine.
Methods: We provided electroacupuncture therapy and prescribed oriental medicine, Joganiknoe-tang daily. We measured patient’s pain by VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) and eye movement with a ruler every five days.
Results & Conclusions : Any patient who has a headache with paresis of the extraocular muscle should be considered for ophthalmoplegic migraine. To diagnose ophthalmoplegic migraine, family history, past medical history, associated symptoms and signs, neurologic examinations and neuroimaging tests are needed. The symptoms of patient improved gradually within 26days from the first day of admission, and we can see her complete recovery.
