title: [Features of mental disorders in patients with chronic pyelonephritis].
abstract: To study prevalence of mental disorders in patients with chronic pyelonephritis (CP), 50 CP patients were examined clinically and with special tests (fundus of the eye, EEG. AMPI, Luscher's test). The patients were diagnosed to have a wide spectrum of mental disorders: psycho-organicsyndrome, paroxysmal disorders, hallucinations, obsessions depression, asthenic syndrome. The presence of psychoorganic syndrome, paroxysms, hallucinations point to developing organic disorders of the brain the severity of which correlates with the age. The depressions had a complicated genesis (psychogenic, somatogenic and organic). The results of the study can be used for design of therapeutic and rehabilitative measures improving quality of CP patients' life.
