Abstract:
This magnetic resonance imaging study investigated the superior temporal gyrus (STG) subregion volumes in 20 teenagers with first-presentation borderline personality disorder (BPD) and 20 healthy controls. While the STG volume early in the course of BPD did not differ from that of healthy controls, the BPD participants with violent episodes had a smaller left caudal STG volume compared with those without such episodes during the previous 6 months. Our preliminary findings might reflect the neurobiological heterogeneity of the disorder.
