Abstract

The authors in their case report show a case of induced hallucinatory psychosis induced in a wife of a patient with alcoholic hallucinosis. They deal with the nosological position of "folie a deux hallucinatoire" (induced hallucinatory psychosis) and integrate the consequences of the case to the general psychopathological theory of hallucinations.
