Abstract
The results obtained in a casuistic of 170 patients with mental diseases and behavior disturbances treated by neurosurgical procedures are reported. The authors call attention to the advantages of the atraumatic stereotaxic psychosurgery over the major surgical procedures on the frontal lobes for the treatment of psychoses and intractable psychoneurosis.
