Therapeutic approaches to febrile seizures have changed since the 1970s when the main reference studies on this topic were published. It is, therefore, timely to consider whether outcomes of febrile seizures have changed in the intervening years. Here, Chungath and Shorvon assess data published since 1993 with respect to three outcomes: mortality, later development of afebrile seizures or epilepsy, and hippocampal or mesial temporal sclerosis.
