[Our experience with lithium prophylaxis in cyclophrenia]

(1) It can be stated from the literature and the analysis of our cases, where 86 patients with Cyclophrenia were under lithium prevention (in 17 cases observation lasted more than 10 months), that this prevention leads to most satisfactory results--with a pronounced alleviation, limiting and shortening of the phases. (2) Since this prophylaxis was a practical cure in the great majority of cases, we have taken steps to circulate this preventative throughout our country, by means of the present network of centres for psychiatric care.
