Transcatheter closure of an atrial septal defect using the Amplatzer septal occluder is a current treatment option in Japan, but is occasionally associated with transient exacerbation or new onset migraine. Clopidogrel is effective in such a situation, but the efficacy of ticlopidine, an analog of clopidogrel, on migraine remains unclear. A 15-year-old girl presented with typical migraine attacks with aura 11 days after transcatheter closure of an atrial septal defect with an Amplatzer septal occluder. All examinations excluded thromboembolic origin of the migrain. Her symptoms disappeared completely after medication with ticlopidine. |
