摘要
Objective-To consider the relation between functional experiential hallucinosis and brain injury induced by radiotherapy. Methods-Single case report. Results-A female patient presented with a four year history of functional experiential hallucinosis after two courses of radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Brain MRI showed hyperintense changes over the left temporal lobe. Conclusion-It is proposed that the hallucinosis was causally related to temporal lobe injury, a documented late complication of radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
