Migraine is the most common chronic headache in childhood, however, it is still little diagnosed in the pediatric group. Early crises can be very early, at 6 months of age. It may present in different ways according to the age group of the child and may or may not resemble the clinical picture of the associated manifestations that may aid in diagnosis. Methods and Objectives: The study used data available on the DataSus, in the category of hospitalization by the CID-10, in the group of less than 1 year, between 1 and 4 years, 5 and 9 years and 10 and 14 years, in the period from 2014 to 2020, to discuss the diagnosis of migraines and compare the prevalence of hospitalizations among children . Results: Between 2014 and 2020, the age group with the highest rate of hospitalization for migraine and other cephalic pain syndromes was 10-14 years, with an average of 57,13%, followed by 5-9 years (32,75%), 1-4 years (8,95%) and below 1 year (1,57%). Conclusion: Migraine has a semiological aspect that makes it difficult to identify in the pediatric group: symptoms. How diagnosis depends on a subjective report, children, especially the younger ones, become underdiagnosed. This can justify the higher incidence of hospitalizations among older children, with greater communication skills and a better description. Another factor is the absence of skilled professionals. Adaptation is necessary to assist in diagnosis, such as: associated clinical manifestations; Note; use of semi-structured interrogation and playful scales to spread the pain.
