In the 90s of the last century, to the arena of clinical psychiatry, the former Heidelberg, now Munich, prof. E. Kraepelin put forward a group of mental disorders under the name "dementia praecox" - early or premature dementia.
Since then, the question of dementia praecox has not left the pages of psychiatric literature; it is dealt with at conferences, special journals are devoted to it, but despite the 20-year existence of the issue, which grew in the Kraepelin's school into a whole doctrine, even now it cannot be considered definitively resolved.
