Weeping as a common element of pseudoseizures.
Weeping is an extremely rare ictal phenomenon. We report weeping during or at the very end of electrographically proved pseudoseizures in 10 patients. We conclude that weeping is a relatively common and specific clinical feature of pseudoepileptic seizures.
