    AbstractThe present study summarizes the authors' experience of the clinical profile of short-lasting trigeminal autonomic cephalgias (TAC) in Indian patients. Over a period of 17 years a total of 41 cases of episodic cluster headache, seven cases of chronic cluster headache, six cases of variant cluster headache, three cases of paroxysomal hemicrania, and a single case of SUNCT syndrome were encountered. TACs appear to be rare in Indian patients and cluster headache seems to be exclusively a disease of men. The present report is to the best of our knowledge the first of its kind to be reported from India.
