Introduction
Histrionic Personality Disorder is one of the most
common personality disorders diagnosed in Psychiatry. This dis-
order has been known to be present in more than 40% of patients.
There is also a high tendency for those diagnosed with this disorder
to be female.
Objectives
The case is to show all the difficulties caused by this
pathology, differencial diagnosis with other personality disorders,
groups of characteristics from different clusters and also, compli-
cations produced in daily routine.
Methods
The purpose is to study a clinical case of a 27-year-old
woman, with a degree in journalism, who began with a depres-
sive episode after a failed relationship. After being diagnosed of
infertility, she debuted with dissociative episodes and somatiza-
tion symptoms. After that, she suffered several depressive episodes.
At the moment, all the clinical symptoms support the diagnosis of
histrionic personality disorder.
Results
Histrionic Personality Disorder can be found in the clus-
ter B group of personality disorders. They often present in an overly
dramatic, erratic or emotional manner. They may fulfil their need
for attention through speech and behaviour that draws one’s focus
of attention toward themselves, and also demanding and manip-
ulative in interpersonal relationships. There are high comorbidity
rates in those who suffer from HPD with other diagnoses.
Conclusions
Histrionic Personality Disorder appears to be one
of the least threatening diagnosis among personality disorders as
those affected are high functioning and do not seek relief for the dis-
order itself. There is also very little research on HPD which makes
treatment options limitless.

Several studies have been conducted to evaluate personality
characteristics in patients affected by major depressive disorder.
Temperamental and character traits may help clinicians to identify
responders to antidepressive therapy. The aim of our study was
to evaluate these characteristics as possible predictive indices of
response to SSRIs or SNRIs. A cohort of 41 patients was included
(30 F and 11M), whose diagnosis was made according to DSM-
IV criteria. Subjects were interviewed using the HAM-D and the
HAM-A scale in basal condition (T0) and after 4 weeks (T1) of
antidepressive treatment. Patients with a
≥
50% reduction of HAM-
D and HAM-A score, have been considered as responders, when
compared to basal conditions. All subjects were in monotherapy
and evaluated using the TCI-R scale. In patients affected by major
depressive disorder, personality assessment was characterised,
from a temperamental point of view, by high levels of Persistence
and Reward Dependence and, from a character one, by high levels
of Self Directiveness and Cooperativity. After 4 weeks of antide-
pressive treatment, responders to HAM-D had higher levels of
Responsibility versus Guilt, which could be considered as a predic-
tor of positive response to SSRIs or SNRIs. Conversely, responders
to HAM-A showed higher values of Responsibility versus Guilt and
of Safety versus Fear of uncertainty. These values were predictive
of a recovery of anxious sintomatology associated with depres-
sive disorder. Our results are in line with those reported in the
literature, indicating that character dimensions “Self Directiveness”
and “Cooperativity” could be important predictors of response to
antidepressants.

Objective
To review the current knowledge about Diogenes
symptoms and organic personality disorder through systematic
review of the literature and the analysis of a case.
Methods
Case report. Review. Literature sources were obtained
through electronic search in PubMed.gov database of 10 last years.
Results
Background: Diogenes syndrome is a behavioral disorder
characterized by severe self-neglect, hoarding, domestic dirt, and
lack of shame regarding one’s living state. Patients may present
due to a range of reasons, few studies has been described hoard-
ing symptoms secondary to brain injury. Early management could
reduce their high-mortality condition.
Case presentation
We present a case of a 67-year-old Caucasian
female known with a organic personality disorder secondary to a
head traumawith obsessive hoarding symptoms. After being hospi-
talizated, we were authorized to explore her personal items trough
photographs. Her handbag and her house were filled with rubbish
and rotting food. Our patient had no insight into any self-hygiene
or public health problems.
Conclusions
Information of the characteristics of Diogenes syn-
drome can help in earlier recognition of such persons, in order to
decrease their morbidity and mortality.
