We present a case of a patient admitted to a psychiatric hospital with psychotic symptoms and cognitive impairment but who was subsequently found to have an anterior interhemispheric falx meningioma. There must be a high index of suspicion for organic brain disease in patients over age 45 years presenting with psychotic symptoms and seizures for the first time.
我们报告一例患者,该患者因出现精神病性症状和认知障碍入住精神病医院,但随后被发现患有大脑镰前间脑膜瘤。对于首次出现精神病性症状和癫痫发作的45岁以上患者,必须高度怀疑存在器质性脑疾病。
