Abstract
|
|
|
Cluster headache is a unique primary headache disorder characterized by unilateral severe orbital pain with ipsilateral autonomic symptoms. Symptomatic cluster headache can be caused by variable diseases, such as aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, cerebral infarction, and meningioma. Cluster headache due to cavernous sinus meningioma has not been reported yet. We report a 33 years-old woman with cavernous sinus meningioma presenting as cluster headache. After steroid treatment, pain attacks decreased.
