Özet
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common neuropsychiatric disorder involving predominantly the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical loop. Although it is usually associated with various disorders of basal ganglia and thalamus, it is difficult to say what kind of impairment causes this situation exactly. Structural brain lesions may be one of the rare causes of refractory psychiatric symptoms. Analysis of such type of cases gives an idea about the neurobiology of psychiatric diseases. In this manuscript, we presented a case of refractory OCD with symptoms regressing after thalamic infarction and discussed with relevant literature.
