title: [Long term psychiatric treatment and surgical operations].
abstract: Frequently, long term psychiatric treatments are interrupted unfortunately. Although sometimes this interruption is necessary owing to the danger of an anaesthetic, particularly in the case of IMAO, this interruption should be only provisional or else a relapse will occur a few weeks later. It is always advisable to take the advice of a psychiatrist before interrupting the treatment.
