Abstract
Migraine is a common disease in older pediatric population. It is uncommonly associated with cerebellar infarction. The patient presents with headache, symptoms and signs of raised intracranial pressure and cerebellar ataxia. There are very few case reports of cerebellar infarction in migraine in pediatric age group. We could not find any Indian case report, after a through literature search. First such Indian case is presented and discussed.
