Mixed dissociative state sin a combat PTSD patient triggered by re- traumatization 15 years after the traumatic war experience – case report

Over the past two decades, there has been more focus on the concept of dissociation in patients experiencing both acute and/or chronic combat-related trauma. We report a case of a 40-year war veteran with PTSD, with symptoms indicating presence of intermittent dissociative states following re-traumatisation fifteen years after the war trauma. This unusual clinical scenario presented a challenging clinical case which does not meet criteria of the current classification for dissociative disorders.
