title: [Typology of posttraumatic stress disorder in children and adolescents].
abstract: The results of clinical and psychopathological study of 161 patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), aged 318 years, illness duration from 1 month to 4 years, are presented. Four main clinical PTSD variants (types) have been singled out in children and adolescents: insomniac (34.8%), phobic (23.6%), psychopathic-like (21.7%) and asthenic-depressive (19.9%). These variants differed in the course and prognosis and their frequency depended on age and ethnicity of patients. No sex-dependent differences have been found.
