Affective disorders are common among post-stroke patients and mainly presented with disorders of the depressive spectrum. Mania is observed in less than 1% of patients after stroke. Mania could develop after stroke in any vascular territory, however most commonly - in case of lesion location in the right hemisphere. It is suggested that its development is related to the abnormalites of cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuitry. Diagnosis and treatment of post-stroke mania is conducted by general principals.

Article Synopsis
- Major depressive disorder (MDD) and post-stroke depression (PSD) are two prevalent mental health issues, with MDD linked to disruptions in various neural pathways and influenced by multiple factors such as hormonal and genetic changes.
- The biological mechanisms of MDD and PSD overlap, particularly in how stroke lesions can impact critical neurotransmitter pathways like serotonin and dopamine, leading to mood changes post-stroke.
- While MDD often develops slowly and can lead to prolonged suffering, PSD typically arises quickly after a stroke but may resolve over time, despite being associated with higher mortality risks.

Significant attention has been paid to the study of post-stroke depression.
