Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to estimate the prevalence and characterize the semiology of co‐occurring functional/dissociative seizures (FDSs) and identify clinical features potentially associated with the development of video‐electroencephalography (video‐EEG)‐diagnosed FDSs in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE ...
