Popis: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is one of the most important tests in the diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Although CSF analysis is most commonly used in neurological pathological conditions, it also has its place in psychiatry. Studies to date have described several valuable specific cytomorphological phenomena in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with acute schizophrenia, which indicate inflammatory or immune-mediated etiopathogenesis of the disease. Additional and long-term research is needed to confirm and standardize the importance of cytological analysis of cerebrospinal fluid in the diagnosis and etiopathogenesis of acute schizophrenia.
