Abstract

Four Chinese patients (2 boys, 2 girls), ages 4–9 years, who had episodes of perception error of body schema and objects are reported. The metamorphopsia, which had been named Alice in Wonderland syndrome, is the major presentation. All of them were proved to have acute Epstein-Barr virus infection, as documented by positive heterophil antibody test and/or positive IgM antibody to Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen. The duration of the perception disorder ranged from 1 week to 3 months. We believe that any young child presenting with Alice in Wonderland syndrome should undergo examination for Epstein-Barr virus infection; complete recovery from the disorder can be expected.

爱丽丝梦游仙境综合症是eb病毒感染的表现

本文报道了4例4-9岁的中国患者(2男2女)出现身体图式和物体知觉错误的发作。变形症，被称为爱丽丝梦游仙境综合症，是主要的表现。所有病例均经嗜异性抗体试验阳性和/或eb病毒衣壳抗原IgM抗体阳性证实为急性eb病毒感染。知觉障碍持续时间为1周到3个月。我们认为，任何出现爱丽丝梦游仙境综合征的幼儿都应该接受爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒感染检查;这种疾病有望完全康复。
