The psychiatric, family and personal background, on the one hand, and the cachectic condition of the patient, explained by the nutritional history, on the other, explain the psychitic expression of underlying vitamin-nutritional deficit. The clinical evolution presented after onset of treatment helps understand the etiological conditioning factors of the syndrome presented.
