title: [Extended suicide: a problematic term].
abstract: In German psychiatry the concepts of homicide/suicide, collective suicide and double suicide are not precisely defined. These acts should be described formally as homicide with subsequent suicide or as homicide with subsequent suicide attempts. The psychopathological symptoms alone are important for the expertise but not a possible psychodynamic interpretation.
