Delusional belief that a location has been duplicated or relocated
Medical condition
Reduplicative paramnesia
Specialty
Psychiatry
Reduplicative paramnesia is the delusional belief that a place or location has been duplicated, existing in two or more places simultaneously, or that it has been 'relocated' to another site. It is one of the delusional misidentification syndromes; although rare, it is most commonly associated with traumatic or acquired brain injury, such as stroke, particularly when there is simultaneous damage to the right cerebral hemisphere and to both frontal lobes.[1][2]
