    Notes: We assessed the prevalence of migraine headaches in an epidemiological survey of an 11 to 14-year-old student population. Migraine headaches were classified on the basis of questionnaires and neurological examination using the operational diagnostic criteria of the International Headache Society. Prevalence of migraine without aura (IHS code 1.1) was 2.35%; that of migraine with aura (IHS code 1.2) was 0.62%. Migraine without aura was equally distributed among males and females, whereas migraine with aura was preponderant in the female cohort. The prevalence of migraine headaches in males was constant through the ages studied, whereas the prevalence of migraine headaches in females reached a peak at age 12 and plateaued over the following two years. Although the new IHS classification criteria of migraines are reliable and exhaustive, some subcriteria may not be valid in a juvenile population. For instance, the duration of the pain in young migraineurs is often briefer than in adults, and the intensity of pain was almost always described as moderate or severe. Therefore, in order to increase the reliability and comprehensiveness of the IHS classification, minor modifications should be made.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Vengono segnalati due casi di malformazione di Arnold-Chiari tipo I ad esordio clinico monosintomatico nella prima adolescenza. Viene suggerito di avanzare, in questi casi, il sospetto diagnostico di ectopia cerebellare anche in assenza di segni e sintomi ben definiti di compromissione del S.N.C. e di eseguire sempre, al fine della conferma o meno di tale sospetto, la RMN della giunzione craniocervicale.
    Notes: Abstract Two cases of type I ACM are described, one of which presented with dizziness in late childhood (case 1), the other with mild intention tremor in adulthood (case 2). Cerebellar ectopia should be considered in monosymptomatic patients even in the absence of other symptoms and signs of C.N.S. dysfunction. Magnetic resonance imaging of the craniocervical junction should be performed because it may be diagnostic for type I ACM.

    Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis. A case report (1992)
    Springer
    Neurological sciences 13 (1992), S. 165-168

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Viene descritto il caso di una paziente che, tre settimane dopo aver sofferto una sindrome influenzale, presentò un quadro clinico caratterizzato da oftalmoplegia, atassia ed are flessia osteotendinea il quale, come è noto, caratterizza sia la sindrome di Bickerstaff che quella di Miller Fisher. La normalità degli esami neurofisiologici (SEPs, VEPs, BAEPs, studio della VCM, VCS), il reperto liquorale e, soprattutto, l'esame di risonanza magnetica encefalica hanno permesso di ricondurre il quadro sindromico osservato and una compromissione del mesencefalo.
    Notes: Abstract A 33-year-old woman three weeks after a febrile illness presented with a syndrome of ophthalmoplegia, ataxia and areflexia (SOAA) that characterizes clinically both Bickerstaff and Miller Fisher syndromes. The normality of the electrophysiological tests performed, the CSF findings and the magnetic resonance images proved that the syndrome stemmed from brainstem pathology.
