对妄想性寄生虫病综合症进行了历史记录。在世纪之交发展的两个解释性假设被确定并追溯到当前关于该病病因学的辩论。本文讨论了妄想性寄生虫病的临床和治疗方面,并报道了4例不同病因的病例。显然,有机因素必须始终牢记在心,因为在某些情况下,瘙痒和其他触觉障碍(特别是老年人)可能会被阐述为感染的错觉。
An historical account is offered of the syndrome of delusional parasitosis. Two explanatory hypotheses developed at the turn of the century are identified and traced to current debates on the etiology of the condition. The clinical and therapeutic aspects of delusional parasitosis are touched upon and 4 cases with different etiological associations are reported. Apparently, organic factors must always be kept in mind as it is likely than in some cases pruritus and other tactile disorders (particularly in the elderly) may be elaborated into delusions of infestation.
