Sporadic hemiplegic migraine in children: A report of two new cases Chakravarty, A. & Sen, A. Abstract Two cases of sporadic hemiplegic migraine, which fulfilled the diagnostic criteria as laid down in International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD)-2, are reported in children. In the first case, two unusual features were noted, namely, the occurrence of dysphsia in association with a left hemiparesis and the spread of sensory symptoms to the contralateral side during attacks. The second case is perhaps the youngest patient reported with this disorder. Keywords Sporadic hemiplegic migraine, migraine with aura, spreading depression
