[Camptodactyly. Apropos of 25 cases]. 1975

I Dociu, and N Sirjita, and V Murgu, and O Galaction-Nitelea

In a group of 120 mental patients, the authors found obvious camptodactyly in 65 patients (46%), especially in psychopaths, neurotics and related conditions. Clinical, psychological, radiological and laboratory investigations were carried out in 25 of these cases. The disease was accompanied by disorders of glucose metabolism, endocrine abnormalities, EEG and bone abnormalities together with arthrosis. The mental disorder, causing an inability to return to work, attracted our attention to the series of abnormalities found in these subjects investigated.
