| Description | Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures represent the important category of pharmacoresistant epilepsies in differential diagnostics. Although the neurological examination has the primary role, especially the video EEG, the psychological examination belongs to deagnostic standard of the diseased. Through its conclusions, it can bring much important information for the global examination of every patient leading to adequate consecutive treatment. The attention is paid to differential diagnostics of both the groups of seizures, to factors and principles of origin of psychogenic seizures and to actual trends in both psychological and neuropsychological diagnostics including their limits in form of false positive diagnostics. |
