Spontaneous carotid artery dissection presenting as migraine--a diagnosis not to be missed.

Z Mirza1, P Hayward, D Hulbert.   

Abstract

Two cases are reported in which the diagnosis of a serious condition was delayed as the symptoms had been attributed to migraine. Spontaneous carotid artery dissection is a serious but treatable cause of headache that may be misdiagnosed as recent onset migraine. The importance of correctly identifying this condition is emphasised.
