For the many varieties of catatonia, all medical ministrations were applied with little success until sodium Amytal (amobarbital) was shown to be specifically successful beginning in the 1930s. Induced seizures as treatments for psychoses in 1930s were also found to effectively relieve catatonia.

We present the case of a young man with a diagnosis of a childhood-onset pervasive developmental disorder who developed a progressive neurologic deterioration with persistent catatonia and right hemiparesis. On his initial evaluation approximately three years after the onset of mutism, he manifested right hemiparesis and catalepsy.

Neuroleptic catatonia and its relationship to psychogenic catatonia
Biological Psychiatry, 1985Neuroleptics are among those pharmacological agents that can cause a nonpsychogenic catatonic state. Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is marked by a change in state of consciousness, ranging from withdrawal through stupor to coma. In addition, it is characterized by autonomic dysfunction, hyperthermia, mutism, and rigidity.

Kraepelin (10) in 1908 first defined a group within his classification of schizophrenia which he described as periodic catatonia. The clinical features of this type may be briefly summarized. The onset, usually between 14 and 20 years, is frequently characterized by a period of erratic conduct followed by an interval of stupor, confusion or excitement,

Although catatonia has historically been associated with schizophrenia and is listed as a subtype of the disorder, it can occur in patients with a primary mood disorder and in association with neurological diseases and other general medical conditions. Consequently, catatonia secondary to a general medical condition was included as a new condition and ...

Catatonic syndromes involve a complex mixture of motor, behavioral, and systemic manifestations that are derived from unclear mechanisms. What is clear is that neurotransmitters, such as dopamine (DA), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and glutamate (GLU), are of major importance in the pathogenesis of catatonia and Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS ...
