Clin Case Rep. 2020 May 1;8(8):1346-1348. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.2618. eCollection 2020 Aug.

Abstract

Migraine-like associated with chest pain is an alarming association and forces us to rule out the presence of a secondary cause. That must be taken into account in the differential diagnosis of craniofacial hemicranial pain that appears in patients with no personal history of headache, and risk factors for the development of pulmonary neoplasia.

Keywords: chest pain; like migraine; migrainous corpalgia; thoracic migraine; vagal hemicranea.
