Structural differences in interictal migraine attack after epilepsy: A diffusion tensor imaging analysis

Results indicate that characteristic structural impairments exist in PWE with interictal migraine. Epilepsy may contribute to migraine by altering WMs in the brain stem. White matter tracts in the fornix and right uncinate fasciculus also mediate migraine after epilepsy. This finding may improve our understanding of the pathological mechanisms underlying migraine attack after epilepsy.
