Introduction

Although psychoactive substance use disorders

(PSUD) belong to the domain of mental health, their management

varies greatly among European countries. Furthermore, both the

role of psychiatrists and trainees in the treatment of PSUD is not

the same for each European country.

Aims

Among the context of the European Federation of Psychi-

atric Trainees (EFPT), the PSUD Working Group has developed a

survey that has been spread out between the 15th of august 2015

and 15th of October 2016, at the aimof gathering information about

the training in PSUD in Europe, both fromChild and Adolescent, and

General Adult Psychiatric (CAP and GAP) trainees.

Objectives

The survey investigated, at European level, the organi-

sation of the PSUD training, trainees satisfaction, attitudes towards

people who use psychoactive substances, management of pharma-

cologic and involvement in common clinical situations.

Methods

A 70-items questionnaire regarding the aforemen-

tioned objectives was developed, and shared trough an online

data-collecting system among European CAP and GAP trainees,

with 40 trainees per country filling the survey in at least 25

countries. One national coordinator per country facilitated the

delivering of the survey.

Results

A total of 1250 surveys were filled from more than 25

European countries.

Conclusions

Data from the survey will be promptly analysed.

The survey will be the first to explore European psychiatric trainees

attitudes and practices about PSUD. Findings fromthis independent

surveymay serve in understanding the needs of trainees in the field

of substance misuse psychiatry.

Introduction

Comorbidity between mental and physical illnesses

is very common and their possible interactions must always be

taken into account. Hepatic disorders in particular, can affect the

blood levels of antipsychotic drugs altering their effects on patients.

Therefore, it is very important to assess in each case which treat-

mentmight be themost beneficial for the patient to avoid iatrogenic

complications.

Aim

To review articles in Pub-Med and UpToDate about the pos-

sible iatrogenic complications that can arise using antipsychotic

drugs in patients with hepatic disorders.

Methods

We describe the case of a 52-year-old male with

Schizophrenia who was diagnosed of HCV infection ten years

ago, for which he rejected any kind of treatment due to deliri-

ous ideation. In the past he was treated with oral Paliperidone

with good tolerance, which he discontinued because of pour

insight and stopped attending Psychiatric consultation. In April

2016 the patient was hospitalised suspecting a hepatocellular

carcinoma.

Results

During hospitalization he began treatment with long-

acting injectable formulation of Paliperidone Palmitate that

improved his insight. The patient agreed to perform the necessary

tests to verify the suspected diagnosis, which was sadly confirmed.

He achieved psychopathological stability, but unfortunately the

patient died 6 months later because of his hepatocellular carci-

noma.

Conclusions

Paliperidone is a good therapeutic option in patients

with hepatic disorders because it is not metabolised by the liver. It

also has a depot formulation that improves adherence in patients

with low insight, reducing the danger of future psychotic decom-

pensation and improving the long-term prognosis.

Objective

To describe a rare case of Acromegaly presenting as

psychotic disorder without neurological signs, in a 19 years old boy.

Method

Single case report.

Results

We describe the case of a 19 years old boy, that was taller

than his peers and had started to grow his hands. He suddenly

presented with an acute psychotic episode. He presented with per-

secutory delusions, perceptual abnormalities, disorganization and

marked fluctuation in his behavior, he showed marked emotional

liability, fluctuations in orientation and psychotic symptoms in the

form of grandiosity, persecutory delusions and delusional misiden-

tifications. At times, he was seen talking to himself, although he

denied hearing any voices. There was no impairment of conscious-

ness. His mood was irritable. An urgent CT and subsequent MRI

scan revealed a pituitary macro adenoma, extending into the cav-

ernous sinus. The initial diagnosis of prolactinoma was revised to

acromegaly. His symptoms responded to combination of olanzap-

ine and valproic acid, followed by trans sphenoid resection of the

adenoma.

Conclusions

This case highlights the need for investigation, espe-

cially of neuroimaging, in atypical presentations of psychosis,

which may be first manifestation of rare disorders like acromegaly.

Despite a lack of information regarding the path physiology, this

particular case emphasizes the importance of ruling out an organic

cause for atypical presentation of psychosis.

Introduction

The comorbidity between obsessive-compulsive

disorder (OCD) and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

has been discussed for a couple of decades. Reported co-occurrence

rates are highly inconsistent in the literature.

Objective

To review phenomenological and theoretical issues

concerning concomitant OCD-ADHD.

Aims

Phenomenological and theoretical issues regarding OCD-

ADHD comorbidity are reviewed.

Results

Although numerous studies suggest an OCD-ADHD

comorbidity, thus far etiological (i.e., genetic) background has
