title: [The psychopathology and clinical picture of schizophrenia with a course of paroxysmal and paroxysm-like disorders].
abstract: Overall 70 patients suffering from attack-like progressive schizophrenia associated with paroxysmal and paroxysm-like disorders were examined. The clinico-psychopathological aspects of the disease were many and varied. The common signs of the disease included the presence of affective disorders, their considerable portion among other psychopathological manifestations. The dynamics of affective disorders specified in many respects the common character of the disease and the degree of the process progression and, in many cases, it tended to the formation of affective continuity. The common characteristics of the disease also included the presence of early disease signs which occurred long before manifest features, i.e. since the very childhood. The study of the structure of paroxysmal and paroxysm-like conditions revealed their diversity and certain specificities as compared with analogous paroxysms seen in the clinical picture of epilepsy. In addition to the clinical and psychopathological characteristics and the dynamics of personality disorders, this will provide evidence in favour of a special variant of the endogenous process.
