A case of Cotard's syndrome with face processing deficits is described. The phenomenology of Cotard's syndrome may be an expression of underlying visual processing deficits, including abnormalities in face perception processing. Phenomenologic and neurobiologic characteristics of this case are similar to those found among delusional misidentification syndromes. This similarity suggests areas for further study that may lead to a better understanding of the relation of phenomenology to neurobiology in Cotard's syndrome.
本文描述了一例伴有面部加工缺陷的科塔尔综合征病例。科塔尔综合征的现象学可能是潜在视觉加工缺陷的一种表现,包括面部感知加工异常。该病例的现象学和神经生物学特征与妄想性错认综合征中的发现相似。这种相似性提示了进一步研究的方向,可能有助于更好地理解科塔尔综合征中现象学与神经生物学的关系。
