Summary
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a relatively frequent diagnosis in traumatized child patients of younger developmental stages, who are treated at the Child Psychiatry Department of Thomayer´s University Hospital in Prague. However the symptomatic picture is not always complete as in the adult population. PTSD is often combined with dissociative, as well as with depressive disorders, which are further after-effects of child abuse (particularly long-term abuse). The cases of patients described here illustrate factors influencing the onset of PTSD and its course in abused children.
Key words:
CAN (child abuse and neglect), psychiatric hospitalization, post-traumatic stress disorder.
