Abstract
A esquizofrenia de início tardio ainda é pouco estudada. Os trabalhos atuais apontam para uma patologia heterogênea, com perfil cognitivo semelhante ao encontrado na esquizofrenia com início no adulto jovem e dois tipos de evolução: um grupo com estabilização dos déficits neuropsicológicos e outro grupo com piora destes déficits ao longo do tempo. Apresentam-se dois casos clínicos avaliados por testes neuropsicológicos CAMCOG e Miniexame do Estado Mental (MEEM), Escore Isquêmico de Hachinski, Questionário de Atividades Funcionais de Pfeffer, PANSS e Inventário Neuropsiquiátrico. O desempenho cognitivo e das atividades de vida diária destes casos foram distintos, o que aponta para a necessidade de estudos prospectivos com enfoque neuropsicológico, para entendimento dos diferentes tipos de evolução das psicoses de início tardio.
There are few studies about late-onset schizophrenia (LOS). LOS is thought to be a heterogeneous pathology with a similar cognitive profile compared to adult schizophrenia and two types of evolution: one group with steady neuropsychological deficits and another group with progressive deficits. We report on two clinical cases evaluated with neuropsychological tests CAMCOG and MMSE, Hachinski's Ischemic Score, Pfeffer Functional Activities Questionnaire, PANSS and the Neuropsychiatric Inventory. The course of cognitive deficits and daily life activities were different, showing the need of prospective studies with neuropsychological approach to understand the clinical course and etiology of LOS.
