The Transient Syndrome of Headache with Neurologic Deficits and CSF Lymphocytosis
Neurol 45:1648-1654, Berg,M.J.&Williams,L.S., 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We describe seven patients who experienced a transient syndrome consisting of headache with neurologic deficits and CSF lymphocytic pleocytosis. Thirty-three similar patients have been reported previously.All had from one to more than 20 episodes of a severe migrainous headache accompanied by a temporary neurologic deficit and lymphocytes in the CSF.Some patients had a preceding viral syndrome,increased intracranial pressure,elevated CSRF protein,or focal EEG abnormalities.All stopped having episodes within 3 months.We present diagnostic criteria for this benign syndrome.Its cause remains unknown.
