ABSTRACT
The authors describe a patient with dopa-responsive dystonia who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome with prolonged catatonia following treatment with neuroleptic agents. Use of these agents probably expanded the patient's neuronal dysfunction beyond the nigrostriatal system to involve multiple dopaminergic systems. Electroconvulsive treatment alleviated the prolonged catatonia.
