SYNOPSIS A 69 year old man complaining of a cluster‐like headache is reported. CT scan showed a median intracranial calcified lesion. Two main considerations are: 1) the importance of searching for an underlying structural lesion in patients with an “atypical” cluster headache; 2) the possible significance of a lesion localized close to the midline structures in the pathogenesis of cluster headache.
