RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Cluster headache is a rare cause of primary headache in children. We report four cases with a mean age of onset of 8.6, ranged from 2 to 13 years. CASE REPORTS: Three males and one female with onset at 2, 7, 13, and 12 years-old, respectively, were included. The symptoms of all patients fulfill the criteria for the diagnosis of cluster headache according to the International Society of Headache. CONCLUSIONS: Despite being rare during childhood, cluster headache should be part of the differential diagnosis of headache in childhood. This report highlights the variable features of this disorder in children, often misdiagnosed. It can be useful in making a quick diagnosis and starting the appropriate treatment early. Verapamil was more effective than flunarizine in terminating the headache in our patients. Oxygen treatment and triptans resulted the treatments with the best response in acute cluster headache.


TITLE: Cefalea en racimos en edad pediatrica: descripcion de cuatro casos y revision de la bibliografia.Introduccion. La cefalea en racimos es una cefalea primaria de origen trigeminoautonomico cuyo inicio en la infancia es infrecuente. Se presentan cuatro casos en los que el inicio de la sintomatologia se produjo entre los 2 y los 13 años. Casos clinicos. Se incluyen tres varones y una niña con inicio a los 2, 7, 13 y 12 años, respectivamente. Los cuatro pacientes cumplen los criterios propuestos por la tercera edicion de la Clasificacion Internacional de las Cefaleas ICHD-III (beta). Conclusiones. A pesar de ser poco frecuente durante la edad pediatrica, la cefalea en racimos debe formar parte del diagnostico diferencial de un niño que consulta por cefalea. Subrayamos la importancia de conocer sus criterios diagnosticos para evitar el retraso diagnostico que se ha descrito con frecuencia. En nuestros pacientes, el tratamiento con verapamilo resulto mas eficaz que el tratamiento con flunaricina. Los tratamientos con mejor respuesta en fase aguda fueron la oxigenoterapia y los triptanes.

RESUMO

Introducción. La sialorrea es la incapacidad para retener la saliva dentro de la boca y su progresión al tracto digestivo, y es un problema frecuente en pacientes pediátricos con patología neurológica, por lo que se están utilizando diferentes medidas para su tratamiento. Objetivo. Evaluar la eficacia y seguridad del trihexifenidilo, la escopolamina y la infiltración de toxina botulínica en el tratamiento del babeo en niños con patología neurológica. Pacientes y métodos. Es un estudio de tipo abierto y prospectivo. Incluye pacientes atendidos en el servicio de neurología que presentaban babeo excesivo, con repercusión en su calidad de vida, entre 2009 y 2013. Resultados. En 46 pacientes se indicó tratamiento con trihexifenidilo oral, y se obtuvo buena respuesta en 15 (32,6%), tres con efecto transitorio y el resto mantenido. Presentaron efectos secundarios tres pacientes (6,5%). De los 11 pacientes a los que se indicaron parches de escopolamina, se halló efecto beneficioso en cuatro (36,36%), uno fue retirado por falta de eficacia y seis por efectos secundarios. Veinticinco pacientes fueron infiltrados con toxina botulínica, con disminución significativa del babeo en 16 (64%) tras la primera infiltración. No observamos cambios significativos en nueve casos. Sólo uno presentó efectos secundarios (disfagia leve). Conclusiones. Por no haber una opción terapéutica totalmente eficaz para los pacientes con sialorrea, recomendamos iniciar el tratamiento con trihexifenidilo; como segunda opción, los parches de escopolamina, y como tercera opción, la toxina botulínica. La infiltración de toxina botulínica en glándulas salivales se muestra como una alternativa eficaz y segura según nuestra serie (AU)


Introduction. Drooling is the inability to retain saliva in the mouth and its progression to the digestive tract, being a common problem in pediatric patients with neurological disorders. Three different treatment options are available. Aim. To assess the effectiveness and safety of trihexyphenidyl, scopolamine and botulinum toxin infiltration in the treatment of drooling in children with neurological disorders. Patients and methods. This is an open and prospective type study. We include patients treated in the Neurology Service that present excessive drooling, affecting their quality of life, between 2009 and 2013. Results. We enrolled 46 patients in the study. The treatment with oral trihexyphenidyl was indicated in 46, obtaining good result in 15 (32.6%), three with temporary effect and the rest with lasting effect. Three patients presented side effects (6.5%). Four out of 11 (36.36%) patients treated with scopolamine patch had beneficial effects. One was withdrawn due to lack of efficacy and six due to side effects. Twenty-five patients were infiltrated with botulinum toxin, with a significant decrease of drooling in 16 patients (64%) after the first injection. We observed no significant changes in nine patients. Only one out of 25 showed side effects (mild dysphagia). Conclusions. Currently there is not a fully effective therapeutic option for drooling. We recommend starting treatment with trihexyphenidyl. A second option could be the scopolamine patch and botulinum toxin as a third option. Botulinum toxin infiltration in salivary glands is shown as an effective and safe alternative in our study (AU)

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Migraine with aura in children is often described, but communications of typical aura without headache are rare, and persistent aura and Alice in Wonderland syndrome are exceptional. CASE REPORT: A 8 years-old girl who experiences during a month one to three brief episodes a day during which she relates: 'I saw things as little and remote, sometimes they moved; one day I saw my sister's books turning bigger, and another day my father getting little as a doll; sometimes my doll's leg swinged, or the blind in the window got up and down'. Later these attacks spaced out to one each to days for another two weeks. With no previous episodes of headache, these start two days after the visual distortions disappeared, with clinical features of migraine without aura. There were antecedents of migraine in maternal line, and no previous trauma, epilepsy, drug ingestion or psychiatric disorders. Clinical examination, cranial RMI, and EEG were normal. CONCLUSION: Although Alice in Wonderland syndrome was described as a migraine aura, it is usually brief, and it is exceptional that it lasts longer than a week. We think this is the first description in a pediatric patient.

RESUMO

Introducción. La migraña con aura en niños se describe frecuentemente, pero las comunicaciones de aura típica sin cefalea son inhabituales y es excepcional el aura persistente y el aura como síndrome de Alicia en el País de las Maravillas. Caso clínico. Niña de 8 años de edad que experimenta durante un mes, de uno a tres episodios diarios y breves durante los cuales, según relata, ‘veía las cosas pequeñas y lejanas, a veces se movían; un día vi cómo los libros de mi hermana se volvían más grandes y otro día vi cómo mi padre se hacía tan pequeño como un muñeco; a veces la pierna de mi muñeca se balanceaba, o la persiana de una ventana subía y bajaba una y otra vez’. Posteriormente, estos ataques se espaciaron en días alternos durante otras dos semanas. Sin antecedentes previos de cefaleas, éstas se inician a los dos días de desaparecer las distorsiones visuales, con características de migraña sin aura. Conclusiones. Aunque el síndrome de Alicia en el País de las Maravillas ha sido descrito como aura de migraña, su duración es habitualmente breve, y su persistencia es excepcional cuando dura más de una semana. Creemos que éste es el primer caso descrito en un paciente pediátrico (AU)
