We report on a rare case of an adult presenting with psychotic symptoms, including prominent thought form disorder and an aphasia. Further investigation revealed the presence of a mature teratoma in the left frontal lobe, which could have played a pathophysiological role in the development of both the psychosis and the language impairment.
我们报告了一例罕见的成年病例,该患者出现精神病性症状,包括明显的思维形式障碍和失语症。进一步检查发现左额叶有一个成熟的畸胎瘤,它可能在精神病和语言障碍的发生发展中起到了病理生理作用。
