  • Overview of established and emerging treatment modalities for MPD.

    • Main Results:

    • MPD is characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personality states.
    • Early identification is facilitated by specific diagnostic criteria focusing on dissociative symptoms and history.
    • Treatment is typically long-term, involving psychotherapy, and may include hospitalization in severe cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Accurate diagnosis of MPD requires careful attention to developmental history and dissociative symptoms.
    • Effective treatment for MPD involves a multidisciplinary approach tailored to individual patient needs.
