Abstract
|
|
|
Writers observed psychotic syndromes in adolescents whose symptoms are relatively brief and cyclic or periodical in nature.
The term periodic psychosis in preadolescence or adolescence is used in the report by Kleist and Sukhareva.
Although the term itself has no objections, many listed different views, on its etiological or pathognomonic areas.
This report presents 3 adolescents whose symptoms are brief and unique on the one hand, they are also periodical on the other.
2 girls reported here showed acute psychotic pictures which were similarly brief and the periodicity was overlapped to their menstrual cycles.
Another case is a boy of 17 whose symptoms were quite similar to the above. Clinical pictures shown by the three are those of catatonic schizophrenia in our impression.
