abstract="Encephalopathy (acute organic brain syndrome) superimposed on functional psychosis may be overlooked because the physician assumes that any exacerbation is due to fluctuation in the psychosis. Correct diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion and a firm knowledge of the signs of encephalopathy. A careful diagnostic approach permits the recognition of encephalopathy and separates it from functional disorders such as schizophrenia.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
