INTRODUCTION
Catatonia is a common presentation to psychiatric services in developing countries. Medical causes of catatonia are common and often missed. Identifying causes for catatonia is important not only to guide proper management but to determine prognostic outcomes
CASE PRESENTATION
We report a case of a 20-year-old male who presented with catatonia. Subsequent investigations revealed a chronic subdural haematoma. Implications of late presentation to orthodox services are discussed.
CONCLUSION
Careful clinical observation, investigation and a high index of suspicion are necessary to effectively manage this condition.
