[Right hemispheric lesion and psychiatric picture. A clinical case report].
Here's a suggestive clinical picture about delirious fit at a fifty-nine year old man showing a vascular injury of his right hemisphere. The injuries of his minor hemisphere generate misleading psychiatric clinical pictures because the neurological signs can be unobstrusive and even missing. We suggest that our observation as a "clinical trap" (clinical pseudopsychiatric picture) and especially to emphasize the complementary paraclinical (scanning) in the diagnostic approach.
