description | Psychosis is a constellation of symptoms that present with a disconnect from reality. The duration, severity, and presentation of symptoms can present on a wide spectrum, and etiologies can vary from patient to patient. Psychosis is also associated with self-injurious thinking, behavior, and suicidality. Long-term treatment of psychosis with antipsychotics can often result in side effects like constipation, sedation, dry mouth, and metabolic syndrome. Though rectal prolapse is uncommon in adolescent patients, there was a noted correlation with rectal prolapse in adult patients that were treated for chronic psychiatric disease. We report a case of a 17-year-old female with psychosis and rectal prolapse, who was admitted for inpatient treatment. |
