Catatonia is a rare complication of multiple sclerosis (MS). We present a case of a 28-year-old inpatient with MS successfully treated with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) after developing a catatonic syndrome. A subsequent relapse also responded to ECT, after which the patient received maintenance ECT for 13 months without complications. Follow-up 18 months later did not reveal any evidence of neurological deterioration. We conclude that ECT was a safe and effective treatment in this MS patient.
紧张症是多发性硬化症（MS）的罕见并发症。我们报告了一例 28 岁的住院患者，该患者患有 MS，在出现紧张症综合征后成功接受了电休克疗法（ECT）治疗。随后的复发也对 ECT 有反应，此后，患者接受了 13 个月的维持性 ECT 治疗，没有出现并发症。18 个月后的随访没有发现任何神经功能恶化的证据。我们得出结论，ECT 是该 MS 患者的一种安全有效的治疗方法。
