Putative pathophysiological pathways of migraine with aura, AIWS, and VSS.

Pathophysiological Pattern
Migraine
  • CSD proceeds in a posteroanterior way in all directions starting from the visual cortex;

  • Increase and subsequent reduction of the BOLD signal from the V3A area to the visual cortex

Alice In Wonderland Syndrome
  • CSD involves neurons of the TPO-C area

  • Cortical dysfunction due to hypoperfusion

Visual Snow Syndrome
  • Hyperactivity of supplementary visual cortex V3A
