To report two Chinese adolescent patients diagnosed as BTM with coma. Materials and Methods. We describe two Chinese adolescent patients diagnosed with BTM with coma. Literatures of migraineurs presented with coma were reviewed. Results. The two patients are partially resolved with prophylactic propranolol or valproate therapy. Conclusion. BTM should be considered for any patient presenting with migraine and coma. Adequate care should be taken to prevent migraine attacks. |
