  • Title: Major symptoms and differential diagnosis of neuroleptic malignant syndrome: three case reports.
    Author: Védie C, Poinso F, Hemmi F, Rivet B.
    Journal: Eur Psychiatry; 2000 Aug; 15(5):334-7. PubMed ID: 10954878.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe the cases of three patients presenting a major extrapyramidal symptom with rising CPK, inconstant hyperthermia and autonomic dysfunction. Through a brief review of the literature, the authors question the unity of the malignant syndrome. If hypertonia is quite constant, the rise in the seric CPK is aspecific and hyperthermia is inconstant.
