La cefalea a grappolo (in inglese cluster headache) è una cefalea primaria neurovascolare estremamente dolorosa. Ha carattere periodico, con fasi attive alternate a fasi di remissione spontanea. Tali fasi attive vengono chiamate "grappoli" (o "cluster"). L'intenso dolore è causato dall'eccessiva dilatazione dei vasi cranici che generano pressione sulle terminazioni sensitive del nervo trigemino. Benché vi siano numerose ipotesi, l'eziologia è tuttora ignota.
