Abstract
Describes 2 patients in whom the experience of migraine aura led to the development of avoidance behavior. In both cases a previous incident colored the aura with the fear of dying. A variation of scintillating scotoma and a visual disorder, respectively, were involved in the development of avoidance behavior.
