>Fregoli Delusion is a delusional misidentification syndrome where a person wrongly believes that different people they encounter are actually a single, familiar person in disguise, often a persecutor. This rare condition is named after Italian actor Leopoldo Fregoli, known for his ability to rapidly change his appearance. Although the individual accurately perceives faces, there is a disruption in how identities are attributed and familiarity is processed, leading to significant distress and anxiety. Association with Other Conditions
>Schizophrenia: Fregoli delusion is often associated with conditions like schizophrenia. >Secondary Psychosis: A significant portion of cases involve a secondary form of psychosis, meaning the delusion stems from another condition, such as vascular dementia or even chronic kidney disease. >Brain Lesions: Right-sided brain lesions have been noted to be more prominent in individuals with Fregoli syndrome.
