편두통성 현훈의 진단 및 치료

Abstract

Interplay between migraine and balance disorder morbidities has been a topic of interest for many years. Migrainous vertigo (MV) is acknowledged as a common cause of episodic vertigo. Like migraine itself, MV is diagnosed on the basis of clinical information as there are no specific biological makers. A preliminary classification proposed two separate diagnostic categories: definite and probable MV. For treatment of MV, it is suggested that drugs used for migraine may be effective. However, current treatment recommendations are generally based on expert opinion rather than ran-domized or controlled trials. Therefore, large prospective, multi-center studies are necessary to better define criteria and optimal treatment.
