Panic disorder (PB) is a disorder that progresses with repetitions and decreases the quality of life. The frequent association of PB with other psychiatric diseases affects the course and treatment of the disease. Our study is aimed at assessing the disorders of the axis I and axis II accompanied by PB. Method: The study was conducted in a university hospital psychiatric clinic, diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders, revised 3th print (DSM-III-R) diagnosed with patients with PD diagnosis according to the criteria between February 1996 and June 1997. After the psychiatric evaluation of sixteen patients, the social-demographic and clinical information form, the structured clinical interview (SCID-I) for DSM-III-R, the structured clinical interview for DSM-III-R personality disorders (SCID-II), the Hamilton anxiety rating scale and the Hamilton depression rating scale were applied. The data was evaluated using the Ki-Care (χ2) and Mann-Whitney U tests. The study groups were created only as PB (Group 1), PB (Group 2) with axis I disorder and PB (Group 3) with axis II disorder. Results: In the study, 56.6 percent of axis I and 43.3 percent of axis II were compatible. Major depression, hypochondriasis, common anxiety disorder, social fobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder were the most common axis I equivalents, respectively. Reflective, addictive, obsessive-compulsive and histrionic personality disorders were the most common equates of Axis II, respectively. The result: the high rate of axis I and axis II disorders accompanied by PB has a negative effect on the treatment and forecast. The taking into account this situation in the treatment and follow-up of PB patients and the addition of psychotherapies that also take into account personality disorders to pharmacotherapy can increase the success rate in treatment.
