Résumé

Repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is still a recent treatment in psychiatry. This article aims at updating the clinicians'knowledge about rTMS in the treatment of mood disorders (uni and bipolar depressive disorders, manic/mixed states, suicidal risk, catatonia). It is intended for clinicians who are required to indicate and/or use rTMS in their current practice. rTMShas the highest level of evidence for the treatment of unipolar depression, provided that effective parameters are used, that is to say, for classical high frequency protocols: 20 to 30 sessions, 1000 pulses/session, 5 to 20Hz, and 110 % of the motor threshold. Low frequency protocol are also efficient and well tolerated. The duration of the efficacy varies with relapses rates around 50 % at one year. Pharmacological treatment generally remains associated. With regard to manic states, and mixed states the results are preliminary and limited to a possible reduction in symptoms. In the suicidal risk associated with mood disorders, the interest of rTMS is still to demonstrate, as well as in catatonia. The current place of the rTMS is no longer disputed in the curative treatment of major depressive disorder, preferentially used after one or two lines of antidepressants upstream. Further studies are needed to confirm preliminary positive findings in other aspects of mood disorders.
