Uma revisão de 50 casos de cefaleia relacionada ao banho: características clínicas e possíveis critérios diagnósticos

Autoria SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

RESUMO

Objetivo:

Descrever as características clínicas e possíveis critérios diagnósticos dos 50 casos de cefaleia relacionada ao banho (CRB) que foram publicados na literatura até agora.

Métodos:

Com base em uma pesquisa de literatura nas principais bases de dados médicos, analisamos todos os relatos de casos ou séries de casos sobre BRH que foram publicados entre 2000 e 2017.

Resultados:

Descrevemos 48 mulheres e 2 homens diagnosticados com CRB. Destes 50 pacientes, 90,0% eram asiáticos. A média de idade foi 49,3 anos. Houve associação com migrânea (28,0%), cefaleia do tipo tensional (12,0%) e cefaleia por estímulo frio (4,0%). A cefaleia foi localizada bilateralmente, explosiva ou pulsátil e de forte intensidade. A dor durou de 5 minutos a 4 dias.As manifestações associadas foram náuseas, vômitos, fotofobia ou fonofobia. Houve uma boa resposta terapêutica com nimodipina e evitando-se banho quente.

Conclusões:

CRB é uma cefaleia benigna não associada com lesão estrutural.
