Our study involved 62 patients aged less than 5 years with febrile convulsions collected at the Military Hospital of Kamenge. This is a retrospective, descriptive, analytical study over a period of 18 months from January 1, 2015 to June 31, 2016.We recorded a prevalence of 3.00%. The average age is 25.82 months with extremes of 10 days to 59 months. The sex ratio is 1.48 in favor of the male sex.The most represented clinical signs were: convulsions and fever (100%), loss of consciousness (56.45%), dyspnea (38.71%). We found 87.10% of patients with generalized seizures. The duration of short-lived seizures was found in 66.13%. A single seizure seizure was recorded in 70.97% of cases.Children with cerebral malaria accounted for a rate of 61.29%.We found that the types, duration and frequency of febrile seizures have a major impact on the occurrence of sequelae and greatly influence child mortality. This is why our results have been compared with those of other authors.
