Neuropsychological presentation of Ganser symptoms. Abstract Text:

We describe a patient with memory complaints whose history of head injury, polysubstance abuse and positive neurological findings suggested the presence of dementia. Neuropsychological testing revealed inconsistent performance plus multiple verbal and visuospatial approximate answers leading to the diagnosis of a Ganser episode. This case illustrates the importance of neuropsychological assessment in diagnosing Ganser symptoms and in differentiating this disorder from organic conditions and malingering.
