	<abstract>&lt;strong&gt;Background and Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) occurs concurrently with&amp;nbsp;many psychiatric disorders. Considering lack of information about comorbid psychiatric disorders in Iranian&amp;nbsp;children, this study was performed to evaluate the prevalence and pattern of psychiatric disorders comorbidity in&amp;nbsp;the children with ADHD.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In a cross sectional study, frequency of comorbid psychiatric disorders in a randomly selected&amp;nbsp;sample of children with definitive ADHD referred to child and adolescent psychiatry clinic of Kashan University&amp;nbsp;of Medical Sciences, Iran, was determined through clinical interview using Kiddie&amp;#39;s Schedule for Affective&amp;nbsp;Disorders and Schizophrenia.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The mean age of participating children was 7.35&amp;plusmn;1.23 years and 132(66%) children were boy.&amp;nbsp;Among 200 children, 107 (53.5%) had at least one comorbid psychiatric disorder which Obsessive-Compulsive&amp;nbsp;Disorder was most prevalent psychiatric disorders following with Enuresis, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder&lt;br&gt;
respectively. There were statistically significant relationships between age and the type of comorbid psychiatric&amp;nbsp;disorders.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Considering the high prevalence of psychiatric disorders comorbidity such as OCD, Enuresis&amp;nbsp;and ODD in children with ADHD, precise diagnosis and proper treatment is essential. More studies are recommended&amp;nbsp;for detection and proper treatment of these psychiatric disorder comorbidities.</abstract>
