title: [Neuro-physiological and morphological manifestations of posttraumatic stress disorder (review of literature)].
abstract: The article presents the review of neurophysiological and neuro-morphological researches of combat posttraumatic stress disorder. Also in the article presented data about the existence by the veterans, suffered by combat posttraumatic stress disorder, a regular dysfunction of hypothalamus-pituitary-paranephric system, approving by excessive allowance ruffling ofcortisol, tending the activation neuro-trasmitteric systems. These changes conjoin with predominance of sympaticotony and of increased psycho and physiological inflammability in response to cues, associated with real or imaginable danger. Methods of neurovisulisation show the existence of changes in visceral brain, prefrontal and sense-motorical zone of cerebrum, corresponded to stress signals. The article presents the discuss of cause-and-effects conditions between the morphological changes in central nervous system, influence of stress-factors and advance of disease.
