Abstract
Migrainous stroke is a rare combination of frequently occurring diseases; only a few cases have been described in the domestic literature. The complexity of differential diagnosis is due to the fact that at the stage of initial manifestations, these two conditions can mimic each other. Treatment strategy and further prevention for each of these diseases is different, so timely and convincing early diagnosis is crucial. The presented clinical case describes a case of ischemic stroke in a young woman who had been suffering from migraine for a long time, which did not fully meet the criteria for migrainous infarction. The patient was treated at the regional vascular center of the Tomsk Regional Clinical Hospital, there was a positive trend in the neurological status. The catamnesis of the disease was tracked. It was suggested that endothelial dysfunction is the main pathogenetic factor in the formation of an ischemic focus against the background of a protracted migraine attack.
