- Abstract:
- The dramatic episode of a febrile seizure, happening short and generalized with normal children, has a good prognosis. The examiner has to perform a very exact differential diagnosis in which an exact history and physical examination have to be on the first place, followed by serological examinations, the EEG and occasionally a lumbar punction. Skull radiography, as we wanted to show in the paper, has lost its place in general examination and should be reserved for special cases.
