Abstract
Case of Parricide in the Context of a Depressive Disorder
The death of minors at the hands of one of their parents is a rare event, but with great relevance from a psychopathological perspective.
The case of a mother affected by a major depressive disorder is presented, in which a differential diagnosis must be established between a complete impairment of her intellectual and volitional capacities due to the possible existence of associated psychotic symptoms, and a partial impairment of her knowledge and will by overvaluation of ideas that do not strictly speaking constitute a delusional construct.
