title: [Depression remitted after subarachnoid haemorrhage].
abstract: A 65-year-old man was seen in a specialized ambulatory for mood disorders because of treatment-resistant depression. He was treated throughout a period of three years with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, dual action, lithium, nortriptyline, reboxetine, aripiprazole, benzodiazepines, isocarboxazide and lamotrigine with no significant effect. However, the psychiatric symptoms resolved abruptly after a subarachnoid haemorrhage. The patient was turned over to his general practitioner 15 months after the incidence with continuously complete remission.
