Taken from the Benson and colleagues study, the following excerpt illustrates some of the core features of the delusion. The patient had suffered a head injury after a fall in his home. The impact had caused a fractured skull and frontal lobe damage to both sides (although more pronounced on the right) owing to the formation of intracerebral hematomas: The illusory relocation to a familiar place , such as a home or town the patient knows well , is a common theme, although occasionally the patient believes they are resident in more fantastical or exotic locations (such as , in one case, Timbuktu).
