Posterior cerebral artery (PCA) aneurysm is a rare condition, and its association with migraine is very rarely reported. In addition, endovascular coiling treatment causing migraine-like headache has never been reported. Here, we describe a newly developed migraine-like headache with visual aura after endovascular coiling treatment for PCA aneurysm in a 31-year-old female patient. One month after the endovascular therapy, the patient stopped using the antiplatelet agents clopidogrel and aspirin and presented with an episodic headache attack twice a month with typical migraine features, including visual aura, right-sided temporal throbbing pain accompanied with nausea, vomiting, and photophobia. The recurrence of migraine-like headache with visual aura was terminated by clopidogrel administration. The generation of the migraine-like headache with visual aura is probably associated with microemboli due to endovascular coiling. This case supports the hypothesis that migraine with aura can be associated with microemboli of variant origins.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fneur.2021.646029","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,17]],"date-time":"2021-03-17T06:10:51Z","timestamp":1615961451000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Case
