The violent adolescent presents considerable difficulty to society and to health care professionals. Thus, this discussion overviews some theories of pathogenesis regarding aggression in adolescence. There is special emphasis on related concepts of neuroanatomy and neurobiochemistry, as well as hormonal influences and the associated psychosocial environment. Literature about the importance of drug abuse and the media is also reviewed. In addition, studies relating aggression to epilepsy and electroencephalographic changes are considered. It is hoped that this paper will aid the interested clinician discern the vast and multidisciplinary literature describing aggression in adolescence. Future investigative endeavors will provide, it is hoped, more definitive biologic and social measurements to enable specific prevention and intervention strategies.
