Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to report on ten cases of this uncommon syndrome admitted to Woodbridge Hospital, Singapore, and studied by the author in a systematic way. No attempt will be made to review the literature, as this has already been done recently by Goldin and MacDonald (1955), Enoch and Irving (1962), Enoch et al. (1967) and Whitlock (1967). The Ganser syndrome appears to be getting rarer in the West, as reports in recent literature have usually covered a few cases only: May et al. (1960) reported three cases and Whitlock (1967), six cases.Keywords
