What a Neurologist Should Know about Functional Anatomy for Botulinum Toxin Injections in the Head, Face, and Neck: A Practical Perspective
So Ra Kim, Vittorio Favero, Alec Hyung Kim, SeongTaek Kim
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0005
Since botulinum toxin (BoNT) was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as a prophylactic treatment for chronic migraines in 2010, subsequent studies have shown that BoNT is effective in the management of chronic migraines due to its pain-relieving effects. Therefore, neurologists are increasingly utilizing BoNT as a therapeutic tool for chronic migraine. It is crucial to thoroughly understand...

Understanding the Connection between the Glymphatic System and Migraine: A Systematic Review
Myoung-Jin Cha, Kyung Wook Kang, Jung-won Shin, Hosung Kim, Jiyoung Kim
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0014
The glymphatic system is a brain-wide perivascular pathway that functions similarly to the lymphatic system in the periphery of the body, playing a crucial role in removing waste from the brain. Although impaired glymphatic function has a well-known relationship with neurodegenerative diseases through abnormal protein accumulation, it is also associated with migraine. While still in its nascent phase, research on...

Side Shift of Attacks in Cluster Headache: A Prospective Single-center Study
Michelle Sojung Youn, Jun Pyo Kim, Mi Ji Lee
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0013

Purpose: Although strict unilaterality is a characteristic of cluster headache (CH), side shift of attacks has been reported. We aimed to assess the prevalence and patterns of side shifts, as well as their correlations with clinical characteristics and treatment response in CH patients. Methods: We prospectively recruited and followed up CH patients at a university hospital. Patients with two or...

Subjective Cognitive Decline Patterns in Patients with Migraine, with or without Depression, versus Non-depressed Older Adults
Sun Hwa Lee, Soo-Jin Cho
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0022

Purpose: Cognitive decline is a common complaint in young patients with migraine, especially those with depression. Independent of psychiatric factors such as depression, subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is associated with an elevated risk of progression to dementia. This study aimed to investigate patterns of subjective cognitive complaints between migraineurs with or without depression and non-depressed older adults. Methods: This retrospective study...

Bilateral Greater Occipital Nerve Block for Preventing the OnabotulinumtoxinA Wear-off Phenomenon in the Treatment of Chronic Migraine: A Case Series of 12 Patients
Sanghyun Kim, Jae Young An, Dae Woong Bae
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0021

Purpose: OnabotulinumtoxinA is widely used to treat chronic migraines; however, the wear-off phenomenon before the next scheduled dose has emerged as a challenge. This study suggests a new strategy for preventing the wear-off phenomenon using bilateral greater occipital nerve block. Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of patients diagnosed with chronic migraine who were treated with onabotulinumtoxinA and bilateral greater...

Case Reports

Primary Headache Associated with Sexual Activity Presenting with Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder: A Case Report
Woo-Seok Ha, Hye-Kyung Baek
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0012
Persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD) is characterized by unwanted and distressing genital sensations that are not associated with concomitant sexual interest or thoughts. Several etiologies have been proposed, but the underlying mechanism of the condition remains unclear. In this report, we describe a case of PGAD presenting with primary headache associated with sexual activity (PHASA). A 57-year-old female with no...

Mechanical Thrombectomy in Cerebral Venous Thrombosis Caused by Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension: A Case Report with Novel Pathological Findings of Fibrin/Platelet-predominant Thrombus
Min Kyoung Kang, Eun Young Kim, Hye-Rim Shin
DOI: http://doi.org/10.62087/hpr.2024.0016
This case report presents pathological findings in a rare case of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) caused by spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) that was treated successfully with mechanical thrombectomy. The etiologies and prognosis of CVT vary, and CVT resulting from SIH is particularly uncommon and challenging to diagnose and manage. In this case, magnetic resonance imaging revealed signs consistent with both...
