Resumen
SHEVEL, E. A report of three patients in whom the surgical closure of terminal branches of the external carotid arteries for treatment of migraine resulted in significantly reduced frequency of epileptic attacks. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2016, vol.106, n.11, pp.1084-1085. ISSN 2078-5135. http://dx.doi.org/10.7196/samj.2016.v106i11.10866.
Three patients under treatment for grand mal epilepsy, and who were also suffering from chronic migraine, underwent vascular surgery for their migraine. A serendipitous benefit from the successful vascular surgery for migraine was a significant reduction in the frequency of their grand mal seizures.
