Abstract
|
|
|
A case of Gilles de la Tourette´s disease transformed to schizophrenic psychosis is reported in this paper.
The patient has been suffered from Gilles de la Tourette´s disease for 17 years without any reasonable treatment. He has not any history of Rheumatic fever or Encephalitis in his earlier life.
E. E. G. , Skull X-Ray, and other neurological examinations do not reveal any abnormalities. The disease seems to be psychogenic in its origin in the light of the free neurological findings.
During the course of his illness lasting 17 years, his personality has become gradually changed and destroyed resulting in schizophrenic psychoses.
The anther also suggested the psychodynamic formulation about the cause of schizo￢phrenic personality change and Gilles de la Tourette´s disease in this case.
It seems to be ambiguous that the Gilles de la Tourette´s disease has really become transformed to schizophrenic psychoses or they have different origins in their process progressing respectively.
