Catatonic Schizophrenia

Sažetak
A representative sample of schizophrenics, for epidemiological-clinical follow-up, was formed in 1972 from the evidence of 8068 patients registered in the Croatian Psychotics Case Register. The sample comprised 402 patients (207 males and 195 females), who were followed up until 1990/91. It was found that diagnosis of schizophrenia, catatonic type (V/295.2), according to valid ICD classification, was made in 59 (14.7%) cases, once or several times in their life. Among these patients were 28 males and 31 females. Our study presents data about catatonic subtype instability during long-term follow up. During the course of illness the majority of schizophrenic patients change their types of clinical picture and at the end of this follow-up in only 11 (18.6%) cases the diagnosis of catatonic schizophrenia was made. Positive family history of psychosis was found in 44.1% of catatonics, and that was significantly greater than in other schizophrenics (20, 1%).
