In recent years, child and adolescent psychiatry has recognized a high prevalence rate of mental disorders in affective disorders' offsprings. These can vary in their nature and severity. What is important is to bare in mind this risk condition. Many times prevention is possible, or early treatment is available. In an investigation that is actually being carried out in the Department of Psychiatry, University of Chile, that searches for understanding factors that severely deviate child and adolescent development, we found it is not unusual for the parents of the proband group to have affective disorders. In order to illustrate the discussion we describe three clinical histories.
近年来，儿童和青少年精神病学已经认识到情感障碍患者后代中精神障碍的高患病率。这些精神障碍在性质和严重程度上可能各不相同。重要的是要牢记这种风险状况。很多时候预防是可行的，或者可以进行早期治疗。在智利大学精神病学系正在进行的一项调查中，该调查旨在寻找严重偏离儿童和青少年发育的因素，我们发现先证者组的父母患有情感障碍并不罕见。为了说明讨论内容，我们描述三个临床病例。
