In clinical practice of neurosurgery, headache is one of the most common symptom. Although the greater parts of headache are caused by benign diseases such as muscle contraction headache or occipital neuralgia, a small number of patients show dangerous headache caused by intracranial lesions that require emergent treatment. In such situation, delay of accurate diagnosis gives rise to serious state. We introduce several diseases which cause headache and are treated by neuro-surgeons, especially referring to cerebrovascular disease. This entity includes subarachnoid hem-orrhage, arterial dissection and intracerebral hemorrhage. The important feature of headache caused by cerebrovascular disease is that it occurs suddenly and is frequently accompanied by the other neurological symptoms. When clinicians encounter such headache, it is crucial to consult with neurosurgeon.
