Abstract
Two cases of psychotic illness in association with the karyotype triple X showed specific diagnostic and management problems as well as obstetric complications, EEG abnormalities, and lack of a family history of psychiatric disorder. Routine karyotyping during the investigation of psychosis is becoming relevant to psychiatric practice as research reports increasingly feature genetic and chromosome anomalies in association with schizophrenic psychoses.
