Adolescent personality disorders in adolescent medicine.

Both BPD and ASPD are disorders whose complex presentations pose numerous clinical challenges to all health care professionals. However, early careful diagnosis and management can diminish the long-term morbidity of these illnesses and offer the hope of a better outcome. As data emerge regarding the long-term prognosis and effective treatment of PDs, clinicians are cautioned to avoid the traditional teaching that the dysfunctional patterns will necessarily continue into adulthood.

Practice parameters for the assessment and treatment of children, adolescents, and adults with mental retardation and comorbid mental disorders. American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Working Group on Quality Issues.

Mental retardation (MR) is a heterogeneous condition defined by significantly subaverage intellectual and adaptive functioning and onset before age 18 years. With an approach underscored by principles of normalization and the availability of appropriate education and habilitation, persons with MR generally live, are educated, and work in the community. Mental disorders occur more commonly in persons with MR than in the general population. However, the disorders themselves are essentially the same. Clinical presentations can be modified by poor language skills and by life circumstances, so a diagnosis might hinge more heavily on observable behavioral symptoms. The diagnostic assessment considers and synthesizes the biological, psychological, and psychosocial context of mental disorders. Comprehensive treatment integrating various approaches, including family counseling, pharmacological, educational, habilitative, and milieu interventions is the rule.
