Abstract

It is widely believed that bipolar disorder is typically a progressive condition, marked by shortening of stable mood periods and of inter-episode cycles over time and increasing number of episodes. However, in many bipolar patients an erratic and unpredictable course of illness may occur. Experienced clinicians are familiar with some patients, whom have not suffered from a relapse of illness for years despite lack of prophylactic treatment. In this report we present a case of mania with 44 years of remission without prophylactic treatment and discuss the preventive therapy in bipolar disorder.

Özet

İki uçlu bozukluk, geçen yıllar ve artan dönem sayısı ile aradaki iyilik dönemlerinin ve hecmeler arası sürenin kısaldığına inanılan ilerleyici bir hastalıktır. Bununla birlikte birçok iki uçlu hastada hastalık istikrasız ve tahmin edilemez bir seyir izlemektedir. Bazı iki uçlu hastalar koruyucu tedavi almamalarına karşın yeni bir atak yaşamakta ya da dönemler arası süre onlarca yılı bulabilmektedir. Biz bu yazıda, koruyucu tedavi olmaksızın 44 yıl düzelmede olan bir mani vakasını sunmayı ve koruyucu tedavinin gerekliliğini ve süresini tartışmayı amaçladık.
