Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 June 2014
Abstract
We present a case of the Charles Bonnet syndrome the onset of which appears to have been associated with vascular pathology. The syndrome typically involves the appearance of mute, colourful and pleasing visual images with the retention of insight into their hallucinatory nature. However, the case progressed in a very atypical way and a system of paranoid delusions developed around the visual hallucinations. The syndrome is reviewed and the possible reasons for the atypical course discussed.
