Abstract
We report a patient who developed sustained psychogenic seizures after undergoing a provocative technique (PT) for the diagnosis of psychogenic seizures.Because patients are at risk for severe agitation with PT, these diagnostic maneuvers should be used selectively, and the clinician should be prepared to deal with this complication.
