INTRODUCTION: The Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AIWS) is a rare clinical neurological condition, based on the presence of perception disorders which are interpreted by the patient as rare metamorphosing and depersonalization events. The main goal of this research is to analyze the causes and consequences of the Alice in Wonderland Syndrome. METHODOLOGY: In the process of creating this narrative review, the BVS, Scielo and PUBMED databases were consulted. The following filters and inclusion criteria were used: English, Portuguese, Spanish AND last 5 years. RESULTS: The most common causes of AIWS are infections by the Epstein-Barr virus and migraines. Symptoms include visual illusions in which the patient sees altered object dimensions, changes in the shape (metamorphopsia) and even notice the disappearance of objects (palinopsia) and the appearance of animals (zoopsy). DISCUSSION: The analysis of the articles showed that the main cause of AIWS is infection by Epstein Barr virus. There were reports including other causes, such as: epilepsy, migraines, infections by other viruses, consequences of surgery and drugs and medications. The majority of patients include young people and children with female predominance. The physiopathology of this disease is not fully understood, but some studies believe that there's the involvement of the occipital, temporal, and parietal lobes. CONCLUSION: AIWS remains a poorly known and misdiagnosed syndrome. This instability in the diagnostic process is because no univocally accepted diagnostic criteria for this disease has been developed. Further studies must be performed to achieve better comprehension of the syndrome.
