Abstract

The classification of migraine includes typical headache without aura of neuro-logic deficit (previously termed common migraine; International Headache Society [IHS] classification 1.1) and headache associated with aura of neurologic deficit (previously termed classical migraine; IHS classification 1.20).1 There are other subtypes of migraine, separately categorized by specific patterns of neurologic deficit and their relation to the headache, for example hemiplegic migraine and basilar migraine.
