Abstract:
The systematic study of delusional misidentification syndromes has been hampered by the often confusing and imprecise eponymic nomenclature currently in use. We present a case report that demonstrates the inadequacies of the current system. We then propose a new classification system designed to improve research and understanding in this important area.
