Does recurrent catatonia manifest in a similar fashion in all the episodes of mood disorder? A case series with literature review
Catatonia, originally conceptualised by Kahlbaum in 1868, is a neuropsychiatric condition that has been found to occur concomitantly with several organic and psychiatric conditions. Starting from the era of Kraepelin and Bleuler, this condition was faultily linked with schizophrenia alone; however,...

description | Catatonia, originally conceptualised by Kahlbaum in 1868, is a neuropsychiatric condition that has been found to occur concomitantly with several organic and psychiatric conditions. Starting from the era of Kraepelin and Bleuler, this condition was faultily linked with schizophrenia alone; however, over time, greater associations have been found between catatonia and mood disorders. Despite the availability of several reports supporting this finding, there is a relative paucity of studies that specifically focus on catatonia to be the first symptom manifestation heralding a subsequent mood episode. In addition, there is scant literature to determine whether there are specific presentations of catatonia that show greater associations with mood disorders and whether these signs and symptoms recur in a stereotypical fashion in the subsequent mood episodes in the lifetime of an individual. We hereby report two cases with a diagnosis of mood disorders (bipolar disorder and recurrent depressive disorder) who had catatonia as the initial symptom not only at presentation but also at subsequent episodes. The report emphasises that recurrent catatonia can be the initial clinical manifestation of an underlying mood episode, which appears otherwise masked behind the catatonic presentation. These catatonic symptoms can be interestingly similar in all the subsequent episodes. A detailed clinical evaluation is thus warranted after catatonia has been duly treated to provide a holistic management. |
