Some delusions arise in response to acquired cerebral injury (e.g., the Capgras delusion). These delusions seem to be different from delusions that arise in the context of a psychotic episode as they seem to be monothematic (focused on a single theme) and comparatively unelaborated.
I know that these conditions are fairly rare, but what I'm wondering is whether neurological delusions are treated with anti-psychotics (similarly to delusions that occur within the context of a psychotic episode) and if so do they tend to respond similarly to treatment?
Thanks.
