Popis: Functional neurological disorder (FND) was first described by ancient Egyptians. Meanwhile, traditional Chinese medicine has long recognized this kind of disease, and it was classified into the categories of depression syndrome, hysteria, lily disease, mania, epilepsy, and so on. Throughout the understanding and research process of FND, we have experienced the iteration of terms such as "hysteria", "conversion/dissociative disorder", "psychogenic neurological disease", and "functional neurological disorder", which reflected the tight development of the cross connection between neurology and psychiatry. Since Pierre Briquet described hysteria as somatization disorder in 1859, FND have developed for nearly 150 years, representing the history of modern neuropsychology and psychology combined exploration. This article aims to systematically review the history of FND, look forward to their diagnositc and therapeutic models and prospects.
