METHODS: We present the clinical case of a paediatric patient who developed PTSD after being exposed to an atypical stressor.
CONCLUSIONS: The literature shows these stressors to be more frequently documented in the paediatric population. We therefore suggest that cases should be analysed as a complex interweaving of variables, where one of the most important is each patient\'s interpretation of the event according to their life history and social context, and not because of an inherent characteristic of the stressor itself.
方法:我们介绍了一名儿科患者在暴露于非典型应激源后发展为PTSD的临床病例。
结论:文献显示这些应激源在儿科人群中更常见。因此,我们建议将案例分析为变量的复杂交织,其中最重要的是每个患者根据他们的生活史和社会背景对事件的解释,而不是因为压力源本身的固有特性。
