title: [Arson usually is not pyromania].
abstract: Three patients, two males of 37 and 38 years and one female of 23 years, committed arson inspired by complicated psychiatric problems. They did not meet the specific diagnostic criteria of pyromania. Arson as a rule is not the same thing as pyromania.
