Abstract

A total of 100 patients with continuous paranoid schizophrenia who had lived to an old age were studied. It is revealed that a significant part of these patients (about 80%) display good social adaptation, do not require hospitalization and preserve this state in the long-term absence psychopharmacological treatment as well. It relates to the fact that in paranoid schizophrenia in old age signs of a decrease of progression of a morbid process and a tendency towards stabilization of clinical manifestations prevail. In other cases progression of a morbid process retains.
