SP - 9 EP - 13 VL - 99 IS - 10 N2 - The presence of stable personal disharmony in the form of a reduced organic mental syndrome served as a criterion for diagnosis of personality changes after traumatic head injuries. The patients were divided into a group with prevalence of personality changes (81 patients) and a group with predominance of pronounced organic mental syndrome (141 patients). Personality disorders prevailed in the patients who had got mild and moderate traumas at the age of 13-25 years, with less number of additional pathogenic factors of exogenic organic spectrum in anamnesis. 3 variants of the course of personality disorders were recognized: with a tendency toward reduction of emotional and drive pathology; with a tendency to intensification of intellectual and mnestic disorders and transformation into large-scale organic mental syndrome; with a tendency toward an increase of pathological traits of personality in conditions of growing influence of the environmental and psychogenic factors.
