[Short near-fainting in children with or without loss of conscience].
Short near-faints with or without loss of consciousness have different etiologies and pathogenesis and, according to these, they recur with various frequency. This subject was reported on several publications and here is again examined with the contribute of personal experience and the description of distinct cases. The following causes were examined: vagal hypertonia, digestive troubles (gastroesophageal reflux), metabolic troubles (cyclic ketosis, hypoglycemia and hypocalcemia with peculiar clinic manifestations). Among the neurological causes were examined: epilepsy, benign paroxysmal vertigos and, particularly, the so called breath-holding spells and the migraine, about that were reported a few examples of "migraine accompagnée". Among the cardiovascular causes (ischaemic cerebral crisis), -particular attention was dedicated to orthostatic hypotension syncope. A short hint about hysteria ends the exposition of psychical causes of short near-faints.
