Background Migraine is associated with several genetic or acquired comorbidities. Studies conducted in recent years emphasize that the frequency of thrombophilia is high in migraine, especially migraine with aura (MA). Similarly, the presence of white matter lesions (WMLs) on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans has been associated with migraine for many years.
