Abstract :
Migraine and stroke have been linked in a complex bi-directional association, though there are quite a few pathophysiological pieces to be found to complete the puzzle. International Classification of Headache Disorders-11 (ICHD-II) has defined a specific term ‘migrainous infarct’ that can be the crucial link between the two disorders. The authors review the latest developments related to migrainous infarct and present a compilation of case reports from 1988 to 2006
