Abstract:
Delusional jealousy has been reported in organic and "functional" psychotic disorders. In organic psychoses, delusional jealousy is usually associated with impaired orientation or other cognitive disturbances. Delusional jealousy in Parkinson's disease has rarely been reported in the scientific literature. A case of a 49-year-old man suffering from this pathology in the course of Parkinson's disease is presented as to clinical picture, therapy, course, and outcome.
