Abstract
The descriptions of catatonia are complex and unclear. More than 40 different signs and symptoms have been included, but coma is not among them. Recently, a case report of coma in relation to catatonia was presented. We report two further cases where coma was a part of this syndrome of disturbed motility. They were successfully treated with ECT. Consequently, we suggest that catatonia may be a differential diagnosis of coma.
