The purpose of the study was to determine the existence of a relationship between the primary migraines and the macroscopic face asymmetries in patients of 6 to 13 years of Dental Faculty of San Marcos University. In order to determine the prevalence of migraine in the pediatric population a test with the criteria of macroscopic IHS 2004 was used and the facial asymmetry were divided in soft weave Asymmetries and hard weave Asymmetries. For the first the photograph method was used, and panoramic x-rays with the technique of panorograma of Simoes symmetry for the second. The children Migraines prevalence was 34.78% appearing more in girls than boys with a 1.66 relation. The prevalence of soft weave asymmetry was of 42.03% increasing with age. There was not statistically significant relation between soft weave asymmetry and migraine (p> 0.05). The hard weave asymmetry was of 77.54%. The...

El estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar si existe una relación entre las cefaleas primarias y las asimetrías faciales macroscópicas en pacientes de de 6 a 13 años de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. Para determinar la prevalencia de cefalea en la población pediátrica se utilizó una test con los criterios de la IHS 2004 y la asimetría facial macroscópicas fueron dividas en Asimetrías de tejidos blandos y Asimetrías en tejidos duros, para la determinar la primera se utilizó el método de la fotografía y para la segunda se utilizo radiografías panorámicas con la técnica del panorograma de simetría Simoes. Se determinó que la prevalencia de Cefaleas en niños fue de 34.78% presentándose más en mujeres que en hombres con una relación de 1.66.
