    Notes: The case of a young woman presenting with repeated headache episodes associated with right eye midriasis is described. CT scan, MR of the brain and selective cerebral angiography were unremarkable. Tyramine eyedrop response suggested parasympathetic hypofunction on the affected side. The diagnosis of ophthalmoplegic migraine is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract Ten young subjects, ranging in age from 12 to 15 years, suffering from tension headache were treated by electromyographic biofeedback (EMG-BFB) twice a week for 12 sessions. The Pain Total Index (PTI) was recorded every month from the beginning to the end of the treatment. At the end of the treatment the PTI decreased significantly in all our patients and, at the same time, the muscular tension values also decreased. This result supports the hypothesis of a correlation between clinical symptom and muscular tension level. We saw our patients for follow-up sessions, and the clinical improvement was confirmed to 1 year from the completion of the treatment; however, the muscular tension values were increased with respect to the last-session values.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario La melanoblastosi leptomeningea è una rara facomatosi la cui variante amelanotica non è ancora stata descritta. Nel nostro studio consideriamo il caso di un ragazzo affetto da melanoblastosi leptomeningea amelanotica esordita come sindrome midollare e come sindrome ipertensiva endocranica secondaria. La diagnosi di melanoblastosi leptomeningea, suggerita dai dati liquorali e neuroradiologici, fu supportata dallo studio istopatologico.
    Notes: Abstract Leptomeningeal melanoblastosis is a rare phakomatosis; the amelanotic variant has not till now been described. In this paper we report the case of a young man suffering from amelanotic leptomeningeal melanoblastosis manifested as medullary syndrome and secondary intracranial hypertension. The diagnosis of leptomeningeal melanoblastosis was hypothesized on the basis of CSF and neuroradiological findings and it was finally confirmed by the histopathology.

    Notes: Abstract The problem concerning the treatment of pediatric headache has been the object of several recent reports. Some of the same medications used to treat adult headache problems are also utilized with children but usually at smaller dosages and in different combinations. The recent application of behavioral approaches, in particular biofeedback, for treatment of children’s headaches has been an effective alternative to drugs without the problematic and dangerous side effects of pharmacological treatments. The purpose of this review is to give some indications about the most common pharmacological therapies for migraine and tension-type headache in children, and also to discuss the use of behavioral therapies, in particular biofeedback, as excellent alternatives to drugs.

    Notes: Abstract A young woman aged 26 years presented with atrophy of the left quadriceps progressing over one year. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a large lesion of the lumbar plexus compatible with neurinoma. Cerebral MRI revealed a lesion in the right eighth cranial nerve also compatible with neurinoma. On further questioning of the patient, it was learned that her mother had undergone surgery twice for acoustic neurinoma. Type II neurofibromatosis was diagnosed from the basis of clinical picture, neuroimaging findings and family history. This case is unusual for the lack of central nervous system (CNS) symptoms. Expansive radicular lesions compatible with neurinoma should prompt cerebral MRI. Regular examination of family members at risk and early diagnosis can decrease the high mortality associated with this condition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario L'emicrania è un disturbo che colpisce circa il 15% della popolazione generale risultando spesso debilitante tale da risultare un problema clinico di rilievo soprattutto quando refrattario alla terapia. Questo articolo fornisce una guida razionale ed aggiornata al trattamento di questa malattia, sia per gli attacchi che per la profilassi. Per quanto riguarda gli attacchi i farmaci risultati efficaci nei diversi studi clinici controllati sono l'aspirina, gli analgesici, gli antiinfiammatori non steroidei, gli ergot derivati ed il sumatriptan. I farmaci riconosciuti efficaci nella profilassi dell'emicrania sono identificabili tra 5 principali categorie di sostanze: beta-bloccanti, calcio antagonisti, serotonino-modulatori, antiinfiammatori non steroidei e gli ergot derivati. Tra le terapie non farmacologiche, viene brevemente discussa l'utilità del biofeedback nella prevenzione di alcune forme di emicrania. Vengono inoltre discusse le numerose variabili che influenzano la scelta del farmaco sia per la profilassi che per l'attacco con le relative controindicazioni.
    Notes: Abstract Finding the best treatment for a patient's migraine is often a problem in clinical practice since the condition is very common, often debilitating and may prove refractory to therapy. Over recent years, more effective migraine treatments have been found and validated, and the traditional remedies have undergone controlled testing. This article reviews the various therapies available for both the acute treatment and prevention of migraine. Treatments often effective against migraine attacks are: aspirin, analgesics, non steroid antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ergot derivatives and sumatriptan. Five main classes of prophylactic drug are currently used: beta-blockers, calcium antagonists, serotonin modulators, NSAIDs and ergot compounds. Biofeedback, one of the most efficacious non-pharmacological preventive treatments of migraine, is also discussed. The variables influencing the choice of acute and preventive treatments, including contriandications and drug availability, are also described in order to provide a practical and up-to-date guide to migraine therapy.
