Abstract
The term “post-operative psychosis” refers to mental illnesses which follow in the wake of surgical operations. These conditions have received relatively little attention from psychiatrists. The text-books either do not mention them or, if they do so, consider them with the delirious or toxic-exhaustive states.Keywords
