Association of Transseptal Punctures with Isolated Migraine Aura in Patients Undergoing Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias
Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 07/01/09
Henrikson CA et al. - This study reports for the first time the incidence and outcomes of isolated migraine aura in patients undergoing electrophysiology procedures involving TSC. For post-TSC patients who present with atypical neurologic symptoms, especially "scintillating scotoma," once transient ischemic attack or other neurologic event has been ruled out, an aura associated with the TSC should be entertained as a possible diagnosis. Electrophysiologists who perform TSC, need to be aware of this phenomenon and can reassure the patients of the transient and benign nature.
