Abstract

The author presents the first case report of folie a deux from Saharan Africa. The clinical presentation of this disorder in Africa does not significantly differ from those reported elsewhere. But cultural factors like superstitions and witchcraft play an important role in the management of these patients. In the author's view, cooperation with the traditional healer with simultaneous administration of modern drugs may be the ideal way to treat such patients.

摘要

作者呈现了撒哈拉以南非洲地区出现的首例二人幻想症病例报告。该疾病在非洲的临床表现与其他地区报道的并无显著差异。但是，像迷信和巫术这样的文化因素在这些患者的治疗中起着重要作用。作者认为，与传统治疗师合作同时使用现代药物可能是治疗此类患者的理想方法。
