DUARTE, Rinalda de Oliveira. The case of "little mermaid": a reflection on diferential diagnosis and the end of the analysis with. []. , 18, 3, pp.518-531. ISSN 1415-7128.

The article proposes a clinical reflection on the psychosis structural diagnosis and also on the difficulties of considering this diagnosis for lack of delirium and hallucinations. The finding was based on the notion of such as psychic structures, based on Lacan's psychoanalytic theory. It is discussed, with clinical service events, the disorganizer consequence of an intervention that consisted of a diagnosis hypothesis of neurosis and the effects of change in management, produced by reformulating the diagnosis hypothesis, referring the case to the end of analysis.
