Abdominal migraine is a variant of migraine headaches characterized by episodic attacks of severe abdominal pain with migrainous features, including anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and pallor. It is more commonly diagnosed in children rather than adults. We describe a 74-year-old patient with progressively worsening back pain, severe neurogenic claudication, and a history of opioid-triggered abdominal migraine. As a precautionary measure, a perioperative opioid-sparing treatment plan was devised to prevent abdominal migraine while the patient underwent elective lumbar fusion surgery. Opioid-sparing treatment plans may enable similar patients to undergo surgery without experiencing perioperative abdominal migraines.
