  • Title: Organic versus functional etiology in catatonia: case report.
    Author: Gomez EA, Comstock BS, Rosario A.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1982 May; 43(5):200-1. PubMed ID: 6804447.
    Abstract:
    The case of an illegal alien brought to the emergency room in a catatonic stupor is described. The patient's condition worsened following the administration of a high-potency neuroleptic, and it was later learned that he had a history of epileptic seizures. This case emphasizes the importance of ruling out organic causes in patients presenting with catatonic symptoms.
