Background

Frontiers in Psychiatry is proud to present the next volume in our Case Reports series. Our case reports aim to highlight unique cases of patients that present with an unexpected/unusual diagnosis, treatment outcome, or clinical course. Case reports provide insight into the differential diagnosis, decision-making, and clinical management of unusual cases and are valuable educational tools.

This Research Topic will only accept Case Reports or Case Studies but also relevant Opinions and Perspectives may be considered. All manuscripts must be original with the aim to significantly advance the field to be considered. We welcome contributions that cover all aspects of forensic psychiatry.
