Catatonia is not a usual clinical presentation of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), especially in the initial stages of illness. However, there is only one reported case of SSPE presenting as catatonia among children. In this report, however, there were SSPE-specific changes on EEG and the catatonia failed to respond to lorazepam. We describe a case of SSPE in a child presenting as catatonia that presented with clinical features of catatonia and did not have typical EEG findings when assessed at first contact. He responded to lorazepam and EEG changes emerged during the course of follow-up.
紧张症并非亚急性硬化性全脑炎（SSPE）的常见临床表现，尤其是在疾病初期。然而，儿童中仅有一例报告的SSPE以紧张症为表现。然而，在本报告中，脑电图（EEG）出现了SSPE特异性改变，且紧张症对劳拉西泮无反应。我们描述了一例儿童SSPE以紧张症为表现，首次接触评估时具有紧张症的临床特征且无典型EEG表现。他对劳拉西泮有反应，且在随访过程中出现了EEG改变。
