Sažetak
Recent brain neuroimaging studies have described limbic brain structures, prefrontal cortex and temporal cortex as possibly associated with PTSD symptoms, specially with cluster of hyperarousal symptoms. 25 Croatian war veterans with combat related PTSD with severe hyperarousal symptoms and impulsive aggressiveness (hyperirritability, aggressive acting outs, outbursts of anger) persisting after four sessions of group psychotherapy in homogenous median groups were assesed for possible alterations in cerebral blood flow in Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography brain scans. Increased regional cerebral blood flow in projection area of nucleus accumbens was found in 13 of 25 subjects, and for all in the dominant brain hemisphere.
