Cluster headache is a clinical entity first described by Eulemburg in 1878 but known since 1939 as  Horton's headache after the researcher who collected and managed the largest series of case's. it is the most sever form of primary, idiopathic headache and was recently classified by DR Peter Goadsby as one of the trigeminal automatic disorders.

The first description of cluster headache is usually attributed to authors who published between
1867 and 1939, but lately several researchers have found accounts dating back to the 18th or even
the 17th century which are incomplete or do not account for cluster headache in the strict sense.
However, Gerhard van Swieten gave a full description of a case of episodic cluster headache
meeting the IHS criteria in 1745, in his textbook of clinical medicine, the mainstream textbook of
Continental medicine in those years, since van Swieten was the founder of the then leading medical
centre, the Vienna School. That the case was found again only in 1992 is due to the circumstance
that it was published in Latin.

Horton, Bayard Taylor (1895-1980), American physician. Horton is known for classic descriptions of two clinical entities. In 1932 Horton and two colleagues from the Mayo Clinic described giant cell arteritis as a new disease entity. This disease, however, was actually described for the first time two years earlier by an American physician, Max Schmidt, in a study of intracranial aneurysms. In 1939 Horton described the condition now known as a cluster headache or Horton's syndrome.

Hello
Thank you all for your answers. I'm in the middle of my first headache season, and now that I know I'm not alone, I feel a little better.

A very readable account of Dr. Horton's work can be found in a 1954 volume by Dr. T.G. Suess, "Horton Hears a Who" (Random House, New York).
