Abstract
Schizophrenia is a disturbance condition that lasts for at least 6 months and includes at least 1 month of active-phase symptoms(i.e., two [or more] of the following : delusions, hallucinations. disorganized speech, grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior, negative symptoms) In this study, we report one case of schizophrenia with acute cerebral infarction. The patient has been diagnosed with schizophrenia more than 20 years ago, and after this recent cerebral infarction, all of her schizophrenic symptoms such as auditory hallucination, delirium, depression, insomnia were aggravated. Her schizophrenic symptoms, PANSS and NIHSS total scores were considerably reduced after oriental treatment(Guibi-tang(歸脾湯)), so we report this as a potential treatment.
