Abstract

Epilepsy in children is occasionally associated with variable comorbidities although the frequency of such comorbidity is often difficult to determine. They can be divided into three categories: neurological, psychological, and physical comorbidities. The goal of the present review is to discuss the reported comorbidities of epilepsy in children. The possible mechanisms and associated risk factors-including the effect of seizure frequency and seizure control, types of epilepsy, age of seizure onset, duration of illness, and the possible detrimental effect of antiepileptic drugs-will be described.
