A 40-year-old man is br - stefan78 - ArchivalUser - 02-20-2008

A 40-year-old man is brought in for evaluation by the Coast Guard after the small plane he was
piloting crashed into the ocean. The man's wife and two friends were also on the plane. The
man has survived the crash with cuts and a broken arm, but he claims he has no memory of
the crash or how he escaped the plane. He is also unable to explain how he got his life jacket
on. His physical examination now is significant only for minor lacerations and a fractured right
humerus, and he has no alteration in consciousness. A CT scan is normal. He is very upset
that the fate of his wife is unknown, and he has nightmares for the next several nights while
trying to sleep. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
A. Dissociative amnesia
B. Dissociative fugue
C. Dissociative identity disorder
D. Factitious disorder
E. Transient global hypoxia
