Abstract
1. 1. The authors describe a case report of catatonia syndrome after administration of depot neuroleptics. 2. 2. Differential diagnosis was made between neuroleptic malignant syndrome or catatonic syndrome complicated by infection. The signs and symptoms observed throughout the patient's course are detailed. 3. 3. A critical review is made of bibliography on the topic, with emphasis on the lack of clear clinical description and poor conceptual definition.
