Emerging of Explosive Speech after Olanzapine in Multiple System Atrophy Patient

BACKGROUND: Cerebellum has an important role in sensorimotor control including speech. Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a sporadic and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder that presents with autonomic failure in combination with Parkinsonism or cerebellar ataxia. CASE REPORT: We report a c...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Cerebellum has an important role in sensorimotor control including speech. Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a sporadic and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder that presents with autonomic failure in combination with Parkinsonism or cerebellar ataxia. CASE REPORT: We report a case of MSA-cerebellum subtype associated with emergence of irreversible explosive speech following olanzapine therapy. CONCLUSIONS: Further investigation into speech problems in MSA according to subtype and disease severity is needed, and side effects of olanzapine therapy should also be considered.
