    AbstractCase report on a patient with SUNCT-syndrome (short lasting, unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks with conjunctival injection, sweating, and rhinorrhoea) who was successfully treated with gabapentin. SUNCT, a still relatively unknown headache syndrome, is characterized by attacks of periorbital pain with accompanying ipsilateral autonomic symptoms. Along with this case report the differences of SUNCT to similar headaches are emphasized. Due to clear diagnostic criteria the inclusion of SUNCT in the IHS classification (International Headache Society) as a separate clinical entity should be favoured.
