Abstract

Primary headache associated with sexual activity (PHASA) is a rare headache syndrome characterized by an acute, maximally intense headache during sexual activity and/or orgasm. While rare, it is a diagnosis that is widely accepted in adults; but, scarcely documented in children and adolescents. We aim to highlight the diagnostic process of this interesting headache syndrome in the pediatric population and add to the small list of reported cases in this group. Herein, we describe the case of a 13-year-old boy who presented with thunderclap headaches (TCH) associated with sexual activity. While more commonly diagnosed in adults, PHASA should be considered in sexually active children, though more ominous diagnoses should also be contemplated prior to establishing this diagnosis.

快乐与不快乐:一个13岁男孩的雷击性头痛。
与性活动相关的原发性头痛(PHASA)是一种罕见的头痛综合征,其特征是在性活动和/或性高潮期间出现急性、最剧烈的头痛。虽然罕见,但这种诊断在成年人中被广泛接受;但是,在儿童和青少年中几乎没有记录。我们的目的是强调儿科人群中这种有趣的头痛综合征的诊断过程,并添加到该组报告病例的小列表中。在此,我们描述了一个13岁的男孩谁提出了雷击头痛(TCH)与性活动。虽然PHASA更常见于成人,但应考虑在性活跃的儿童中进行,尽管在确定这种诊断之前也应考虑更多不祥的诊断。
