Abstract
The incidence, age and sex distribution, symptomatology, psychosocial stress factors and course of conversion symptoms in a child and adolescent psychiatric patient sample were studied. Under the age of 10 conversion symptoms are comparatively rare and consequently require careful diagnosis, particularly regarding visual and hearing defects. Predominant conversion symptoms are seizures, gait problems and paralysis.Entities:
