Background: A major pitfall in the diagnosis of conversion disorder is the difficulty in ruling out organic causes. METHODS. A 19-year-old female was referred with seizures and the Dandy-Walker syndrome. We continued the medical workup and also treated the patient with psychotherapy.
Results: The patient's symptoms gradually abated, however, the headaches remained. No neurologic illness evolved during the follow-up.
Conclusions: The diagnosis of pseudoseizures is suggested according to clinical evaluation and follow-up. A multidisciplinary approach is recommended in such cases for efficient diagnosis and treatment.
