Migraine with aura in children is often reported, typical aura without headache is reported sometimes, but persistent aura and Alice in Wonderland syndrome is exceptionally reported. We present a case corresponding to the last one mentioned in a 6-year-old patient who had at least two episodes with the typical characteristics of aura without migraine before developing more frequently the complete clinical picture of aura and subsequently headache. The complementary studies systematically done to the patient were normal and she improved with conventional therapy.It is important to emphasize that the syndrome should be suspected in any patient who presents the described manifestations in order to approach to the diagnosis of aura without migraine, to discard either organic pathology or another cause and to indicate adequate therapeutic measures.
