AB The  case  described  above  illustrates  the  common  confusion  between  panic  attacks  resulting  from  a  panic  disorder  and  ictal  fear  or  ictal  panic,  which  is  the  expression  of  simple  (and  complex)  partial  seizures  that  typically  originate  in  mesial  temporal  structures.  In  this  chapter,  we  review  the  clinical  differences  between  these  two  conditions,  their  relatively  frequent  comorbidity,  and  the  involvement  of  common  neurobiological  mechanisms  and  neuroanatomical  structures  that  explain  such  comorbidity.
