Abstract
Headache is one of the most common presenting complaints to emergency departments. Although the overwhelming majority of these headaches are benign and self-limited, headache can be the initial symptom of life-threatening disorders.

The purpose of this article is to review the causes, evaluation, and appropriate investigations for nontraumatic headache in the pediatric emergency department.
