	<abstract>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; Obsessive-Compulsive disorder (OCD) is one of the greatest and debilitating&amp;nbsp;disorders, which many of its patients do not respond to psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy.&amp;nbsp;In this regard, paying attention to new treatments such as transcranial direct current stimulation&amp;nbsp;(tDCS) is important. The purpose of the present research was to examine the effects of tDCS&amp;nbsp;on the obsession-compulsion (OC), anxiety, and depression of a patient suffering from OCD.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study conducted on a 23-year-old female patient with OCD. tDCS&amp;nbsp;sessions were lasted 10 days, one session per day and each session of about 20 minutes with 2.0&amp;nbsp;mA intensity. The results of Beck depression inventory, Hamilton anxiety rating scale, and Yale&amp;nbsp;Brown obsessive-compulsive scale showed decrease in OC, depression, and anxiety symptoms&amp;nbsp;after 10 sessions of tDCS.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results of the present research using cathodal tDCS on orbitofrontal cortex in&amp;nbsp;10 sessions showed that this montage is a powerful and successful treatment for patients with&amp;nbsp;OCD and alleviate their OC, depression, and anxiety symptoms.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The data were analyzed by diagram analysis and improvement percentage. This&amp;nbsp;study showed that anodal tDCS on O2 and cathodal tDCS on orbitofrontal cortex improved&amp;nbsp;OC, anxiety and depression symptoms. However, our findings give introductory confirmation&amp;nbsp;that our patient with OCD has a positive response to cathode tDCS of the OFC.&lt;/p&gt;
