Abstract

This case report describes a 17-year-old female patient in whom a clinical picture of manic syndrome developed four days after craniocerebral trauma. The diagnostic procedure comprised neuropsychological, neurophysiological and neuroanatomical examination. The diagnosis revealed discrete organicity on the level of psychic functions, whereas magnetic resonance imaging revealed changes of the right hemisphere. One case cannot reveal the etiology of affective disorders after cerebral injuries, but gathered results point to the possibility of causal connection between craniocerebral trauma and manic syndrome.
