Resumen
MIGOYA-BORJA, Marta et al. Coexistence of Different Delusional Misidentification Syndromes in Clinical Practice: A Case Series. rev.colomb.psiquiatr. [online]. 2023, vol.52, n.3, pp.201-205. Epub 11-Nov-2023. ISSN 0034-7450. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcp.2021.05.003.
Objective:
The objective of this study is to analyze the coexistence of several delusional misidentification syndromes in a clinical sample.
Methods:
Over one year, a sample of six patients presenting two or more types of delusional misidentification syndromes was selected. All these patients were admitted to the psychiatric inpatient unit of a Spanish hospital.
Results:
Despite the different diagnoses, the patients included presented different types of delusional misidentification syndromes, both hyperidentification and hypoidentification. Antipsychotic treatment was not very effective against these delusional misidentification syndromes
Conclusions:
The coexistence of several delusional misidentification syndromes indicates that the aetiopathogenesis of the different types is similar. It is a field with important clinical implications, due to the poor response to treatment, as well as the possible medico-legal implications.
