Adult Abdominal Migraine Improved by OnabotulinumtoxinA Injections

Abdominal migraine is often regarded as a childhood disorder and less commonly described in adults. However, gastrointestinal symptoms are known to occur to adult migraine patients, and recognition of adult abdominal migraine may facilitate treatment of the recurrent abdominal symptoms and avoidance of unproductive and sometimes invasive therapies. Here, I describe a patient with chronic migraine headaches and recurrent abdominal pain both of which showed sustained improvement after treatment with onabotulinumtoxinA injections.
