abstract="We confirmed the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in a 54-year-old man. The patient rejected this diagnosis and was completely convinced that all his symptoms resulted from a chronic mercury intoxication. We found evidence that this delusional disorder was an independent illness, and not a &quot;symptomatic psychosis in multiple sclerosis.&quot; So far, little notice has been taken in psychiatry of delusions of environmental poisoning, which cause difficulties in applying common criteria of delusion.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
