Abstract
We retrospectively identified 22 patients (19 were girls) with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (NES) studied with video EEG telemetry over a 24-month period. A history of other conversion symptoms was identified in 11 of 22 patients. Symptoms were frequently neurological in nature. A strong association with depression and history of abuse was noted in children with multiple conversion manifestations. These NES patients with secondary conversion symptoms may require more intensive psychological therapy and be at risk for long-term pathology.
