Abstract

Catatonia in the pediatric population is a historically overlooked syndrome. Accurate recognition is complicated by a broad differential diagnosis and co-morbid substance use, particularly in adolescent patients. Prompt treatment is vital to avoid life-threatening complications such as malignant catatonia. This article summarizes a case of relapsing adolescent catatonia and discusses the pathway of diagnosis and treatment.
