Cluster Headache: Diagnosis, Management, and Treatment in Pediatric Headache

Despite its rarity, cluster headache can affect children. Patients with cluster headaches often experience symptoms in their adolescence, but the time it takes for a correct diagnosis can be very long. Cluster headache can be mistaken for other pathologies, which can result in patients being diagnosed and treated incorrectly. CH therapy often represents a challenge in pediatric age as there are no studies dedicated to this age category and the therapy strategy is generally based on data from adult experience. The aim of this review is to provide a summary of the current literature on cluster headache in children and adolescents.
