Case report: Epicranial pain after radiotherapy for skull base meningioma - the first symptomatic epicrania fugax?

Conclusion
Although the pathogenesis of EF remains uncertain, this case is consistent with a symptomatic origin in the trigeminal root/pathway. The onset of the EF-like pain could have been caused by the compressive effect of the tumour or, most likely, by the radiation.
