We compared the clinical, psychological and pharmacological characteristics of patients with familial migraine and patients with sporadic migraine. Five hundred and thirty consecutive new patients attending our Headache Center over a two-year period were involved in the study. The patients were divided into two groups: A. Familial migraine (famM)--at least one first-degree relative affected; B. Sporadic migraine (spoM)--no first-degree relative affected. Four hundred and twenty-four patients (80%) fulfilled the criteria for famM and 106 (20%) for spoM. The patients with famM showed a significantly (p<0.01) earlier age at onset of the disease. No significant difference in all the remaining features examined was found. Our data suggest that famM and spoM represent a single disease entity.
