[Depressive states in adolescents with epilepsy].
11 adolescents at the age from 14 to 17 years with epilepsy were observed. Depressive states (27 ones) arose in such patients in the course of the main disease. It has been established that the depressive states in epilepsy can be caused by both the epileptic illness itself and psychic trauma. The following depressive syndromes were described: anxious, depressive-dysphoric, simple (melancholic), anergic. Depressions were atypical in terms of manifestations of the separate components of depressive triad, daily changes of the mood, etc. The depressive states appearing in the course of epilepsy can proceed on both the psychotic and neurotic level. The depressive states of the psychotic level can be found more often within the general framework of the polymorphous psychotic syndrome (so-called "schizoepilepsy" type). The latter was observed in 7 patients. The therapeutic recommendations are given.
