PARTICULARITIES OF THE PSYCHIC DISORDERS THAT OCCUR IN THE CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASE
Abstract:
The cerebro-vascular disease is a complex neurological disease with significant implications
for the mental life, destroying and reorganizing it from the organic personality disorder to the vascular
dementia. The damage of the brain tissue due to infarct or hemorrhage – slowly leads to mental
disorders. According to H. Ey, a huge number of mental disorders are caused by organic processes such
as brain tumours, intoxications, encephalitis, cerebro-vascular diseases. The psychiatric clinical picture
depends on the organic process that imposed the damage’s shape and degree, but the symptoms do not
depend directly on the pathologic process. The symptoms are the effect and the expression of a
disorganized mental life and of its’ typical reorganization on a structural floor that characterizes and
defines each type of mental disorder.
