摘要：
Evidence for and against the notion of a specific subtype of depressive illness in the elderly is reviewed. There is little to support a distinction based on clinical features, neurobiological markers, treatment response or prognosis, but subtle organic cerebral change may predispose to late-onset depression in a significant minority of cases.
