Conclusions: Our study confirms the findings of the previous population studies reporting similar academic and social success between children with and without febrile seizures before the 5th birthday. Reassurance of the parents about a favorable future may ameliorate their worries at this frightening event in their child's life. (C) 2011 British Epilepsy Association. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
