Erotomania is a rare condition in which an individual has the delusional belief that other person is in love with him/her. Some authors suggest the distinction of a primary and secondary form, depending on etiology, with possible implications on the management of the disorder. On the latter, treatment should be focused on the underlying disease, while on the former, besides antipsychotic medication, attention should be paid to some specific characteristics of these patients. There is little data published on the subject, with most of the available information coming from case-reports or small collections of cases. Here, we describe and discuss two clinical cases of primary and secondary erotomania and make a short review about the subject. We believe that this paper brings more insights into the conceptualization and approach of erotomania and the relevance of the acknowledgement of its primary and secondary forms.
