Aim: To show a case report of mental health consequances of a felow who survived Trauma brain injury (TBI) with commotio cerebri that was not properly diagnosed in the first emergency medical examination and harm that he and his family suffer because of lack of knowledge and ethics of medical, economic and judical authorities. Case report: A twenty-six year old male survived a traffic accident that caused TBI. He was misdiagnosed during the emergency examination. Because of that (and other factors) he has not returned to his previous level of functioning. After he treated in the Department of Psychiatry, he went back to his environment a sick leave council interrupted his sick leave, showing mistrust to him and his condition and towards the discharge diagnoses from the Department of Psychiatry. The council sent him to his job without occupational rehabilitation that was recommended. As he could not work in his full capacity, the authorities from his job discharged him on January 2012. When he was on the trial for getting his compensation because of health damages the insurance health expert denied his sufferings and all mental consequences of the commotio cerebri because it was not diagnosed on the first examination in the evening of the accident. So the destiny of this young fellow is very questionable in perspective because of lack of knowledge and ethics of medical staff who are not responsible regarding Hippocratic oath and of industry management who do not take adequate care about their workers who survive traffic accident on the way back to home from their job and who continually suffer because of health particularly mental health consequences. Conclusion: The TBI is an important health public problem and the hospital must establish a perfect managemet in this patients for avoid Mental Changes of Commotio Cerebri.

OBJECTIVE The aim of this paper is to examine the implications for healing in a contemporary Balkan post-war context, and to provide a bridge-building model of trauma transformation, reconciliation and recovery through academic reconstruction and cross-border dialogue. Post-war societies are marked by the effects of massive, large group traumatization, and if not properly dealt with, long-term rehabilitation and social recovery cannot be expected. Unprocessed cumulative trauma that has become deeply embedded in the collective memory of the Balkan peoples over centuries, "chosen trauma", its trans-generational transmission and periodical reactivations across the Balkan have often been addressed in recent literature, in ethno-psychology, psychoanalysis, psychiatry, sociology and anthropology. In order to deepen our understanding of the roots of collective (social) trauma and the specific traumatic experiences of different groups, and to offer different perspectives and information on how trauma can be dealt with, the "Trauma Trust Memory" multinational interdisciplinary research network is being established, and a groundbreaking workshop was held in May 2013 in Tuzla, Bosnia-Herzegovina. CONCLUSION The Tuzla Workshop showed that the active participation of affected groups in adequate coping with the past is required for post-conflict reconstruction, trauma healing and peacebuilding in the long run.

Methodology: We assessed 10 male opiate addicts aged 24.8±4.7 years. With presentation of clinical vignettes, authors described how opiate dependants with criminal past imprisoned in jail because of aging penalties avoided discontinuation of treatment after they were included in the Buprenorphine/Naloxon maintenance treatment program. This practice has been implemented in cooperation of Department of Psychiatry in Tuzla and Tuzla prison from 27 July 2009. Results: All opiate dependants described with clinical vignettes showed surprised with positive effects on overall outcomes of Buprenorphine/Naloxon after implementation of continual treatment in prison in cooperation with jail officers (nurse and guards). Also they were very satisfied with life quality during treatment in prison. Also jail officers, family members of dependant person showed satisfaction with achieved efficacy of Buprenorphine/Naloxon eider during aging penalties. Conclusion: Medically assisted treatment of opiate dependence with Buprenorphine/Naloxon for imprisoned addicts implemented as outpatient treatment with involvement of jail officers who were instructed in Buprenorphine/Naloxon daily administration, improved quality of life of treated opiate dependants, and quality of their relations in prison with others.

Introduction: Consequences of alcohol dependence may be complex, and difficult for treatment, thus complex diagnostic procedures are needed.Aim: To assess the prevalence of silent brain strokes and cortical cerebral atrophy amongst male inpatient alcoholics.Methodology: We analyzed 86 file records of males treated from 01 January 2005 to 31 December 2009 year on Tuzla Psychiatry Department, who had dismissed diagnosis Alcohol dependency (F 10.2) according ICD-10, with computerized tomography (CT) of brain, related to age, war engagement, brain trauma, employment, smoking, psychological findings and presence of silent stroke and cortical brain atrophy according CT diagnosis.Results: The mean age of observed patients was 50.1±6.6 years. Amongst them (70.9%) were active soldiers in Bosnia-Herzegovina Army during 1992-1995 war. There were 71 (72.6%) with atrophy of brain cortex, 27 (31.4%) had ischemic silent stroke.
