Lesions of the olfactory pathway result from trauma (e.g., skull fracture) and often from olfactory groove meningiomas. These lesions cause ipsilateral anosmia (localizing value). Lesions that involve the parahippocampal uncus can cause olfactory hallucinations (uncinate fits, with déjà vu). The ...
olfactory deficits than those in which patients were treated with second-generation antipsychotics [26]. It is also worth noting that although some patients with schizophrenia experience olfactory hallucinations, several studies have demonstrated no association between olfactory hallucinations and olfactory impa...
Benefitting from the longitudinal study design, we also assessed the persistence of parosmia over 5 and 10 years prospectively. Parosmia experiences were prevalent in 4.8% of the population and it often co-occurred with phantosmia (“olfactory hallucinations”), but was not associated with lower ...
Olfactory and gustatory hallucinations presenting as partial status epilepticus because of glioblastoma multiforme. Olfactory and gustatory hallucinations are not often encountered in the acute care setting but may represent the subtle presenting features of a significan... JC Dan,MT Hoerth,JF Drazkowski...
cause of long-term smell loss observed in our clinic—can reflect much more than nasal congestion. The aftermath of a cold, like that of other disorders that impact the olfactory epithelium, can include distortions (dysosmia) or smell hallucinations (phantosmia). These phenomena are assumed to ...

Nearly a half of SSD patients have functional impairments, which raise the likelihood of constant unemployment and the difficulty to ...
2. This psychiatric disease is characterized by the presence of a number of behavioural manifestations classified as positive symptoms, a set of conducts that are considered to be exacerbated in schizophrenia patients (e.g. delusions and hallucinations), and negative symptoms, a group of behaviours ...
