摘要

The term mirror sign refers to the inability to recognize the reflection of oneself in a mirror, while the ability to recognize others' faces often remains intact. In this article, we present a case of an 85-year-old woman, with probable Lewy body dementia, who stably exhibited a delusional mirror sign for a period of 9 months. Following a straightforward, ecological, non-pharmacological intervention, her mirror sign delusion was no longer present.
