  • Title: [Syncope-like episodes as a symptom of conversion syndrome in a 15-year-old girl].
    Author: Jedrasik P, Wolańczyk T.
    Journal: Pediatr Pol; 1996 Aug; 71(8):727-9. PubMed ID: 8927479.
    Abstract:
    The authors present a case of a 15-years-old girl with syncope-like episodes occurring for 6 months. We found that disturbances of consciousness observed in our patient were due to conversion syndrome. Problems concerning differential diagnosis of syncope-like episodes are discussed with special emphasis on psychogenic syndromes, cardiogenic, neurogenic and metabolic causes, as well as the use of modern diagnostic techniques (e.g. video/EEG monitoring).
