Tension-Type Headache in Children and Adolescents

Abstract: In pediatric neurology, tension-type headache (TTH) represents a very common type of primary headache during the pediatric age. Despite the high prevalence of TTH, this diagnosis is often underestimated in childhood, with relevant difficulties in the differential diagnosis of TTH from secondary and primary headache manifestations. Even among primary headaches, a clinical overlap is not so infrequent in children: migraine attacks could present tension headache-like features while tension-type headaches may disp… Show more

“…Furthermore, the limited number of samples does not allow us to evaluate our results as a function of age, sex, frequency of attacks, and duration, which, in light of the above-mentioned considerations on the maturation process in children and variations in phenotype during developmental ages [2,3], are aspects that should not be overlooked. The absence in the control population of subjects suffering from tension-type headaches is an aspect that will need to be examined because at a developmental age, the boundaries between the two disorders are less clear than in adulthood, and there is frequently a transition from one form of headache to the other (more frequently from a tension-type headache to migraine) [46,47]. Finally, it would also be appropriate to compare our results with other non-invasive methods such as evoked potentials, quantitative EEG, etc., in the same subjects [48].…”

“…Серед скарг, з якою найчастіше звертаються батьки дітей, або самі підлітки до педіатрів, є головний біль (ГБ). За даними літератури головний біль у дітей чи підлітків займає дуже високу розповсюдженість -від 10 до 55 % серед населення шкільного віку і входить в трійку основних причин звернення як до педіатра, так і до дитячого невролога [1,11,15].…”

“…Відповідно, зростають витрати на лікування таких пацієнтів, іноді лікування необгрунтованого. Також постійні страждання через головний біль наражають на ризик розвитку депресій як у дитячому віці, так і інших неврологічних та психічних розладів у дорослому житті [1,15]. 26 % дітей з головним болем повідомляють про супутні психіатричні захворювання, такі як тривожність та розлади настрою, також виявився позитивний зв'язок між головним болем, емоційними розладами та коморбідними соматичними захворюваннями [7,11].…”
