Abstract

Stroke can have neuropsychological consequences, such as poststroke psychosis. One aspect of poststroke psychosis is delusional infestation (DI), also known as delusional parasitosis. Patients with DI have fixed sensations that they get infested by lice. Some explanations of DI indicate that striatal and fronto-cortical structural and functional abnormalities are related to DI symptomatology. In this case report, we present a patient with DI due to right intracarotid artery occlusion, which is detected radiologically. Before treatment with escitalopram and risperidone, the case had a frontal slowing in quantitative electroencephalography activity, which was normalized after 2 weeks of treatment. At the end of treatment, psychotic symptoms and OCD symptoms evaluated by the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale, the Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms, were remarkably reduced. These results revealed the role of brain imaging studies in the diagnosis and prognosis of DI.

qEEG 在一例妄想性感染病例的诊断和预后中的应用。
脑卒中会造成神经心理后果,如脑卒中后精神病。卒中后精神病的一个方面是妄想侵扰(DI),也称为妄想寄生虫病。患有妄想寄生虫病的患者有一种被虱子寄生的固定感觉。关于妄想出没症的一些解释指出,纹状体和前皮质的结构和功能异常与妄想出没症的症状有关。在本病例报告中,我们介绍了一名因右侧颈内动脉闭塞而导致的 DI 患者。在接受艾司西酞普兰和利培酮治疗前,该病例的额叶定量脑电图活动减慢,治疗两周后恢复正常。治疗结束后,患者的精神症状和由耶鲁-布朗强迫症量表(Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale)和阳性症状评估量表(Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms)评估的强迫症症状明显减轻。这些结果揭示了脑成像研究在诊断和预后 DI 中的作用。
