    Abstract:
    Since the times the Hipocraticum Corpus was written, Phrenitis or Mental Confusion was described as a mental disorder related basically to fever, but also related to craneal traumatisms an others somatics ethiologies. The theorical background of the different schools was the same, the Phisis and Humors doctrine, but the results of their works were quite different. Cos school had a biographic approach, Cnido a systematic one, and Eclectics blended both with emphazis in treatment.
