Abstract: | Two children with migraine showed low-density areas with an irregular enhancement pattern on CT scans of the head after contrast infusion. Angiography was normal in both patients. These abnormalities probably were due to transient blood-brain barrier damage. This knowledge is important when excluding other disorders like vascular malformations. |
