ALAYETO GASTON, María Angeles e SANCHEZ LUCAS, Naiara. Emergence of Capgras delusion after a subarachnoid hemorrhage in a patient with severe mental disorder. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2013, vol.33, n.119, pp.607-616. ISSN 2340-2733. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0211-57352013000300011.
It presents a case of a patient with severe mental disorder who after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage starts manifiestar the delusion that some doubles are usurping the identity of people close to her (Capgras delusion). It observes the patient during the rehabilitation process in medium-stay unit two years after the episode HSA, where entered for worsening and the psychopathology evolution. The various theories or models alone that have tried to explain the etiology of Capgras delusion fail to explain successfully. Although some emphasize an organic origin, the reality is that no damage on a common location for all cases and not always possible to determine it. The interest of the case studied here lies in the coexistence of different factors involved, organics and not organics, and particular resolution of the delirium. Using a multivariate approach it has hypothesized about the Capgras delusion singular formation in the patient, taking into account the existing theoretical proposals and introducing relevant issues idiosyncratic, personal and environmental factors, that should not be ignored. After analyzing the case and based on some results finally it has found out, it discussed about issues such as the oneness of the phenomenon and its possible therapeutic implications.
