An unusual Case of Autoscopic Hallucination: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Abstract
Autoscopic hallucination is an interesting phenomenon since the past many years but has not been reported much in a clinical setting. It is a psychic visual hallucination in which a person experienced a part or whole body in the external space. It has been reported in various organic conditions and specifically in the male gender. However, it has been rarely reported in the case of primary psychiatric illness. Here we are reporting a female patient presenting with the autoscopic hallucination presented with Schizophrenia. A Psychiatrist should be familiar with this kind of unique phenomenology.
