Abstract

This article describes a case of posttraumatic stress disorder that underwent an administrative psychiatric evaluation. It was concluded that, due to the severity of the case, there was work disability. Administrative psychiatric evaluations are extremely important for guaranteeing the rights of individuals. Detailed study of the case, comprehensive anamnesis, and psychopathological examination are all fundamental to ensure that these evaluations are carried out correctly.
