Background:

  • Pathological crying is a frequent consequence of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
  • It is often misdiagnosed as major depressive disorder or an adjustment problem.
  • Understanding the neurobiological underpinnings is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the neurobiological bases of pathological crying following TBI.
  • To review the occurrence of pathological crying in TBI patients.
  • To outline clinical assessment and treatment considerations.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on pathological crying in TBI.
  • Discussion of neurobiological factors and lesion locations.
  • Emphasis on differential diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Main Results:

  • Multiple pathological entities and lesion locations can cause pathological crying.
  • Pathological crying is a significant clinical issue in TBI patients.
  • Psychopharmacological interventions can provide relief, but education is essential.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of pathological crying in TBI requires understanding its neurobiological basis.
  • A thorough differential diagnostic approach is necessary.
  • Integrated treatment including education and medication is recommended.
