“…In patients with OCD, abnormalities of cortico-striatal circuits that involve the orbitofrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, prefrontal cortices, temporo-parieto-occipital areas, thalamus, and the striatum have been suggested, 81,82 as well as impaired striatal connectivity. 83 In patients with ADHD, dysfunctions in the cortico-striatal-thalamo-cortical circuits, 84 changes in cortical thickness and gyrification, 85 changes in the serotonin transporter binding potential, 86 changes in callosal thickness, 87 and reduced gray matter volumes in various regions of the brain are seen. 88,89 In addition, the severity of ADHD and OCD symptoms probably has neuroanatomical correlates.…”
