Amaurosis is an uncommon conversion phenomenon, which to our knowledge has never been reported in multiple family members.
A man and his two adult children, all afflicted with periods of blindness and accompanying severe headaches for varying periods of time (days to years), were examined and extensively studied radiologically and with multiple laboratory tests.
In all three individuals, no evidence of organic disease was found; all three recovered to varying degrees, usually after suggestion.
Psychogenic amaurosis with headaches can simulate migraine; the mechanism for occurrence in a family is probably similar to that of mass hysteria.
黑矇是一种罕见的转换现象,据我们所知,从未在多个家庭成员中报道过。
一名男性及其两名成年子女均患有不同时间段(数天至数年)的失明期,并伴有严重头痛,对他们进行了检查,并进行了广泛的放射学检查和多项实验室检查。
在所有三人中,均未发现器质性疾病的证据;三人都有不同程度的恢复,通常是在暗示之后。
伴有头痛的癔症性黑矇可模拟偏头痛;在一个家庭中发生的机制可能与群体性癔症相似。
