The Koro syndrome, a 'special cultural psychiatric syndrome', is encountered in South China, Malaysia and Indonesia, especially among people of Chinese origin. There are only eight case reports of Koro from the Western hemisphere. We present a typical primary Koro patient from Israel. Jewish cultural mores are a contributory factor.
恐缩症是一种“特殊的文化性精神综合征”，在中国南方、马来西亚和印度尼西亚均有发现，尤其在华裔人群中更为常见。来自西半球的恐缩症病例报告仅有8例。我们报告了一名来自以色列的典型原发性恐缩症患者。犹太文化习俗是一个促成因素。
