Objective: Migraine is quite frequent in the child's neurology practice. The diagnosis of migraine is placed by the patient's anamnesis and detailed neurological examination. In this study, we aim to present the clinical and demographic characteristics of our cases diagnosed with migraine in a newly established child neurology clinic retrospectively. Instruments and methods: Third-stage hospital's child neurology clinic between 01 October 2017-30 April 2019 with a headache complaint and pediatric patients based on the criteria "Migrene Type Headache Diagnostic Measures (ICHD-3 beta)" diagnosed with a migraine diagnosed with 55 patients were examined as retrospective. Results: The average age of cases was 12.25±2.25 (8-17) years. 29 of the patients (52.73) were men and 26 (43.08) girls. The average age of girls is 13.15±2. 67 (8-17) years and the average age of male cases was 12.75±1.57 (9.16-16) years. The diagnosis of migraine was more common in the age group of 11-14 men, and in the age group of 15-18 girls. The pain time in the attacks is 80.19±24.29 minutes (30-120 minutes). It was found that headaches were accompanied by photophobia and phonofobia in 46 (83.64) patients, and that 40 (72.74) patients were accompanied by nausea and vomiting. In 30 cases (54,54) the pain was observed as a trigger. After information on elimination, 19 (34,54) patients found a decrease in the frequency and duration of headaches. The preventive treatment was initiated in 35 patients and the most commonly preferred drug was fluraniasis. In all patients initiated preventive treatment, the frequency and duration of the pain was reduced. The result: Migraine diagnosed patients were warned of provocative and deteriorating factors that could cause headaches, and the frequency and number of pain in post-elimination patients were found to be reduced. More research is needed in which the clinical and demographic characteristics of the diagnosed phenomena are shared.
