Si bien las cefaleas primarias son las que se presentan con mayor frecuencia en este grupo poblacional, alcanzando hasta un 66 %, también es necesario conocer acerca de las principales cefaleas secundarias que se pueden presentar y sobre todo las que representan algún riesgo o ponen en peligro la vida del paciente. Por esto, hicimos una revisión de la literatura disponible acerca del tema, con el fin de ofrecer una guía actualizada y de fácil acceso para todos. El texto inicia con un caso clínico diseñado por los autores, con su respectiva discusión, se presentan algunos datos epidemiológicos y luego se describen las cefaleas primarias y secundarias, así como las neuralgias más frecuentes en los adultos mayores. Finalmente, se mencionan algunas cefaleas no tan frecuentes pero que deben ser consideradas, además de algunos aspectos terapéuticos al respecto.]]></p></abstract>
