Abstract
PNES appears to be a relatively rare diagnostic entity among inpatients with both epilepsy and ID. However, the complexity of diagnosing PNES in this population, and the similarities in stress-related triggers for PNES in patients with and without ID, suggest that PNES may be underdiagnosed in the ID population. Diagnostic challenges of PNES and, as subcategory, reinforced behavioural patterns are discussed.
