Abstract
There is a general agreement about the less disruptive effect on memory and the shorter post-treatment confusion after unilateral electroconvulsive therapy (UNI-ECT) as compared with the traditional bifrontotemporal ECT (BI-ECT). However, there are divergent opinions about its therapeutic efficacy.Keywords
