LIPPI, Gian  y  NAUDE, Elna. Treated for psychosis and presenting with prominent speech and language abnormalities: A case report of an adult with a frontal lobe teratoma. S. Afr. j. psyc. [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.1, pp.1-3. ISSN 2078-6786.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/sajpsychiatry.v22i1.924.

We report on a rare case of an adult presenting with psychotic symptoms, including prominent thought form disorder and an aphasia. Further investigation revealed the presence of a mature teratoma in the left frontal lobe, which could have played a pathophysiological role in the development of both the psychosis and the language impairment.
