Phase Contrast MRI Suggests an Internal Carotid Vascular Tone Alteration in Migraines.

INTRODUCTION
 Migraine is the most common neurological disorder and the third most common disease worldwide. However, the underlying mechanisms contributing to its development are not completely understood. Symptoms may arise from a combination of dilation-independent vascular events and neurogenic mechanisms interacting throughout the brain and within the trigeminovascular system in the meninges MATERIALS AND METHOD:  We report here a case of a patient with a suspected familial hemiplegic migraine who presented an increased recurrence of events from one per month to one every other day. Three magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquisitions were performed after the appearance of a strong crisis which included a paresthesia and aphasia along with headaches. Two MRIs were performed close to the crisis, while the last one was done 1 month later.


RESULTS
 During the crisis, cerebral perfusion exhibits incoherent results. Blood velocity measurements highlight a strong phase lag between left internal carotid artery (ICA) and basilar artery and more importantly right ICA. After a month, parameters came back to standard values.


CONCLUSION
 The transitory nature of the observed modifications suggests a reversible alteration of the vascular tone of the ICA in patients with migraine. This alteration seems to follow recovery pattern of the patient.
