Atrofia Ippocampale nel Disturbo Post-Traumatico da Stress e nel Disturbo Depressivo Maggiore

Year: 2006

Type: article

Abstract: Objective The relationship between hippocampus and the pathophysiology of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder is supported by substantial evidence from basic and clinical studies. Magnetic Resonance Imaging studies have reported that hippocampal volumes are reduced in patients with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder, but other investigations have not found any reductions in hippocampal volumes. In order to address the relationship between Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depressive diseases and hippocampal morphology, we have compared the hippocampal formation in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder and healthy matched control subjects.
