Objectives: Febrile seizure (FS) is the most common form of childhood seizures. Furthermore, idiopathic/generalized and focal/self-limited epilepsies present at the similar age-range. They usually have a favorable outcome. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and demographic profile of FS in patients with idiopathic/generalized and focal/self-limited epilepsies.
