[The Klein-Levin syndrome (a case)].

The author provides a detailed description and a clinical analysis of a case of Kleine-Levin syndrome. Reviews the psychopathological characteristics of the patient with Kleine-Levin syndrome. Hypersomnic attacks occurred in an epileptoid personality at an age of 14 years, each attack was coupled with affective derealization symptomatology. The epileptic nature of the disease is not supported by the EEG data. It is suggested that the psychopathological symptomatology of the hypersomnic attack is consequent on the derangement of mediator regulation of hypothalamic functions.

[Classification of psychopathological conditions associated with perceptual disorders in narcolepsy].

Based on a clinical analysis of psychopathological conditions associated with perceptive disorders in patients with narcolepsy, an attempt was made of their syndromal qualification. The constituents of the syndrome distinguished (orientation disturbances, theatrical effectiveness of hallucinations with fantastic plot, participation of the patient in the capacity of an active character in the play, episodes of relatively short duration, their relation to the sleep-consciousness cycle, and so forth) permit one to specify it as oneiric.
