Abstract:
Three cases of manic-depressive illness are presented which, with various manifestations of pseudodementia, end in dementia. The relationship of cyclothymia to dementia is discussed, and the need for diagnosis with the aid of equipment is stressed. Notwithstanding the absence of systematic theories, it seems most probable that senile dementia (Alzheimer dementia) may be associated with cyclothymia.
