Tactile Hallucination and Delusion Following Acute Stroke: a Case Report

Akut inme sonrası gelişen taktil halüsinasyon ve delüzyon: Olgu sunumu. İnme sonrası, başta depresyon olmak üzere birçok psikiyatrik bozukluklar görülebilmesine karşın psikoz gelişimi nadirdir. İnme sonrası gelişen psikiyatrik bozukluklar, etkilenen beyin alanları ile ilişkilidir ve farklı belirtiler ile karşımıza çıkabilir. Beyinde farklı inme lokalizasyonlarında psikotik belirtilerin geliştiği bildirilmektedir. Ancak, temporoparietooksipital alan lezyonlarında diğerlerine göre daha yüksek oranda ikincil psikoz gelişme olasılığı bulunmaktadır. Bu makalede, sağ temporoparietooksipital tutulumlu iskemik inme sonrası gelişen ve delüzyonel olarak yorumlanan taktil halüsinasyon olgu sunumunun yapılması amaçlanmıştır.

Akut inme sonrası gelişen taktil halüsinasyon ve delüzyon: Olgu sunumu

Tactile hallucination and delusion following acute stroke: a case report. Although many psychiatric disorders, especially depression, may be seen after stroke, development of psychosis is rare. Post-stroke psychiatric disorders are associated with the affected brain regions and may appear with different symptoms. Although psychotic symptoms have been reported in association with strokes in different brain areas, temporoparietooccipital lesions have a higher possibility of leading to the development of secondary psychosis than those in other brain areas. This article aims to present a case of tactile hallucination and delusion in a previously healthy man that developed after ischemic stroke with right temporoparietooccipital involvement.
