In a series of 1007 consecutively admitted patients, 3 cases of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) were identified (0.3%). All three patients were affected by mood disorders with congruent psychotic features, had shown catatonia just before the onset of NMS, and had been treated with low neuroleptic doses. All of them presented low serum iron levels. The relationship between NMS and catatonia and possible therapeutic decisions are discussed.
在连续收治的1007例患者中，确诊了3例抗精神病药恶性综合征（NMS）（0.3%）。所有3例患者均患有伴有一致精神病性特征的心境障碍，在NMS发作前出现了紧张症，且接受的抗精神病药物剂量较低。他们均表现出血清铁水平低。本文讨论了NMS与紧张症之间的关系以及可能的治疗决策。
