SUMMARYThis paper reports the incidence of head injuries as patients attended a general hospital Accident & Emergency Department. The survey was carried out over a twelve‐month period. The Accident & Emergency Department of Luton & Dunstable Hospital sees approximately 60,000 new patients every year. It is situated in close proximity to the M1 motorway and other major road systems. Facilities are available on site for computerised tomography from Monday to Friday between 9.00 am and 5.00 pm. At other times, if it is considered necessary after consultations with our neurosurgical colleagues, they are referred to the Royal Free Hospital, 30 miles away.

This paper reviews the literature on complex temporary disturbances of brain function triggered by mild blows to the head in children, adolescents, and young adults. It consolidates the evidence by which these attacks have been identified as classical or complicated migraines, and provides a historical account of the descriptions and proffered explanations of these attacks. The clinical features and the electroencephalography, angiography, computerized tomography, and cerebrospinal fluid findings of trauma-induced migraine are presented and compared to those of spontaneous migraine. Ideas about the pathogenesis of this condition are related to current thinking on the neurological phenomena of migraine in general.
