title: Neurotransplantation--a new method of treatment in psychiatry?
abstract: The authors present the results of their catamnestic evaluation of the first few patients (diagnosis of schizophreny; atrophic process posttraumatic and Alzheimer's dementia), in whom implantation of neuronal embryonal tissue into the brain was performed in the last few years. They warn against excessive publicity and optimistic appraisal by neurosurgeons because psychiatric examinations after some time fail to confirm the success of the operation.
