Abstract
The 10th revision of the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) has many pitfalls for translators due to an effort to adhere strictly to the English original and the wish to respect the usual psychiatric terminology and the spirit of the Czech language. The author draws attention to some newly introduced and abandoned terms and diagnoses and the importance of this phenomenon for forensic expertise.
