| Description |
Inspired by the Lewis Carroll classic, the term Alice in Wonderland syndrome (AIWS) refers to a fascinating disorder characterized by altered perception of the dimensions of one's body and objects in surrounding space. Migraine is a frequent cause, but similar symptoms can occur following focal brain lesions, providing a unique window into the neuroanatomical localization of higher order perceptual functions. Here, we sought to test whether lesions causing AIWS map to a common neuroanatomical substrate. |
