Functional Neurological Disorder; Multi-disciplinary Treatment |
Description |
This symposium will clarify the definition of functional neurologic disorder (FND) and explore how it may present to a Neuro-ophthalmologist. FND, previously known as 'conversion disorder', can include a constellation of symptoms, including sensory symptoms, fatigue states, change in mental status, movement disorders, as well as seizure. It is a separate entity from malingering, in which patients knowingly feign symptomatic illness. Treatment of FND usually necessitates a multidisciplinary team approach of physicians in neurology, psychiatry, and physical therapists. We will review the condition, treatment recommendations, and the differential diagnosis of this complicated disorder. |
