[Pseudoepileptic seizures].
The paper is devoted to the differential diagnosis of epilepsy. The author reviews one of the most common diagnostic errors--a situation when pseudoepileptic seizures are considered as epileptic ones. The causes of development of pseudoepileptic seizures, their classification and clinical presentations are presented. The clinical differences between epileptic and non-epileptic seizures are highlighted. The tactics of management of patients with pseudoepileptic seizures in neurologic in-patient clinics is suggested.
