Med Clin North Am.

Abstract
Depression in later life can present unique clinical and therapeutic challenges. Phenomenology is often atypical and the concurrence of physical illness can confound both diagnosis and treatment. A review of current knowledge about epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, and therapeutic issues is presented.
