Brain tumors without giving neurological symptoms yet; it can also occur with a wide range of psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, eating disorders, personality change, vision hallucinations and mania. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of brain tumor might be delayed in patients whose clinical symptoms are like these. Brain imaging techniques should be performed especially in patients who don't respond to psychiatric drug treatment and have no neurological symptoms. In this article, a female patient who presented to our psychiatry outpatient clinic with symptoms of depression, accompanied by psychosis symptoms in later periods, and whose mass was detected as a result of magnetic resonance imaging, is discussed in the light of literature studies. Here, we aimed to emphasize the importance of neurological examination and brain imaging methods in patients who come to psychiatry especially with atypical symptoms.
