ABSTRACT

El mutismo selectivo es un trastorno poco frecuente y a menudo infradiagnosticado, que puede afectar al rendimiento escolar y repercutir negativamente en su desarrollo. Ocurre antes de los 5 años y está caracterizado por la incapacidad de comunicarse en ámbitos donde el niño no se siente cómodo, como puede ser la escuela; en cambio, en otros lugares, como el domicilio, se comunica y actúa sin problemas. Genera inquietud familiar. Su tratamiento principal es la terapia cognitivo conductual. La combinación de esta terapia con la administración de fármacos se reserva para casos más graves. Se describe a continuación un caso diagnosticado hace 6 meses y en tratamiento desde entonces (AU)


Selective mutism is a less frequent disorder, often underdiagnosed, which negatively affects the child’s development and school performance. This disorder takes place before the age of five. It is characterized with the incapacity to speak in places where the child does not feel comfortable, as school, but at home they speak without problem. In fact, the detection occurs at school, and generates family distress due to their surprise for their child’s attitude. The treatment is based on cognitive-conductive therapy, and just in severe cases pharmacotherapy is needed. A case diagnosed 6 months ago and under treatment since then is described below. (AU)
