- Title
Catatonia and alcohol withdrawal: a complex and underestimated syndrome.
- Authors
Geoffroy, Pierre Alexis; Rolland, Benjamin; Cottencin, Olivier
- Abstract
Catatonia is a neuropsychiatric syndrome characterized by alterations in motor behavior, vigilance, thought and mood. Catatonia syndrome occurs in many neuropsychiatric and medical conditions, but it is very rarely mentioned as occurring during alcohol withdrawal. We think that this co-occurrence could be underestimated in clinics because alcohol withdrawal symptoms may distract from its identification.
