Introduction

Methylphenidate drugs is prescribed in attention

deficit disorder and hyperactivity. Among its rare side effects,

include alterations in the gynecological. We report a clinical case

and review current evidence regarding the tolerability this drug in

this area.

Methods

We performed a PubMed search of articles published

in English of different types (case reports or case/controls studies).

We collected the clinical practice guidelines conclusions regarding

adverse drug reactions.

Case presentation

Our patient is a 14-year-old male diagnosed of

ADHD treated with methylphenidate (0.8–1 mg

\

kg). He developed

bilateral and asymmetric gynecomastia under this treatment plan

so a referral was made to rule out other causes of this event. After

performing several work up tests, it was concluded that this clinical

presentation was caused by methylphenidate. Hence, we initiated

crossed titration swapping this drug to atomoxetine. Four months

later, he was mentally stable and he experimented a volumetric

decrease as concerns his gynecomastia.

As regards methylphenidate, in 2009 a couple of cases in which

alterations in the sexual sphere presented with the oros presenta-

tion were reported. There are series of reported pharmacological

side effects (gynecomastia) and also denoted an improvement of

the same months after drug discontinuation.

Conclusions

Gynecological clinic secondary to the use of psy-

chotropic drugs in ADHD is uncommon. In line with our case, the

current evidence suggests a drug suspension as adverse effects are

usually reversible (although itmay take severalmonths to complete

recovery). Further studies are needed to understand the mecha-

nisms underlying these tolerability issues.

Introduction

The Phelan–McDermid syndrome is a chromosomal

disorder consisting of a selection on chromosome 22q13.3 associ-

ated psychiatric and emotional level, behavioral and traits of autism

spectrumdisorders. During the neurodevelopmental such chromo-

somal deletion, which associated with haplo insufficiency Shank 3

causes alterations in the synaptogenesis altering the balance of acti-

vating and inhibitory transmission. Throughout the various studies,

it is considered that this syndrome has a psychiatric disorder bipo-

lar like.

Case presentation

Here, we present s 13-year-old female diag-

nosed with autism spectrum disorders in childhood and presented

regression with catatonia features and behavioral disorders. Inter-

estingly, she presented mutation/microdeletion of the

SHANK3

gene, inducing a premature stop codon in exon 21. Different

pharmacological treatments (antipsychotics at high doses and

benzodiazepines) failed to improve clinical symptoms and lead

to multiple adverse events. In contrast, lithium therapy reversed

clinical regression, stabilized behavioral symptoms and allowed

patients to recover their pre-catatonia level of functioning. After the

first menstruation there was a cycling psychiatric worsening with

a similar clinical pattern so risperidone as adjunctive therapy. As

a result of this, this patient recovered clinical and socio-functional

stability.

Conclusions

They are previous cases where there affective and

behavioral improvement after use of mood stabilizer molecules

such as valproate or lithium. There is also evidence of the bene-

fit of risperidone low to have a beneficial effect on the balance of

activatory and inhibitory transmission level doses of NMDA recep-

tors.

Is there a relationship between Gilles

de la Tourette and psychosis? A case

report considering the continuum

psychosis perspective and

vulnerability model

Introduction

There has been no evidence so far about significant

relationship between Gilles de la Tourette and psychosis. Perhaps

a continuum psychosis perspective and the vulnerability model

could improve the comprehension of our patients.

Objectives

To describe a case in which motor and obsessive

symptoms evolve to schizophreniform symptoms and important

psychosocial deterioration.

Methods

Single case report and literature review.

Results

A 20-year-old man, with clinical record of Gilles de la

Tourette, and a psychosis episode 6months before, is brought by his

familywith a syndrome consistent inmotor retardation, whispered

speech, poor visual contact, social withdrawal, hygiene neglect,

abulia, apathy and blunted affect. In the one-year tracing concep-

tual disorganization and poor idea association are in the first place.

Within child history, we found symptoms congruent with Gilles

de la Tourette, obsessive symptoms and others that may be called

mild psychotic symptoms (which did not fit in any diagnosis at

that moment). We also found a pathological relationship between

his parents and among him, as well as a poor economic and social

condition.

Conclusions

According to the continuum perspective, psychotic

symptoms could be found within the obsessive spectrum. Related

to the vulnerability model, we found in our case external fac-

tors that affected the clinical evolution: family dynamics affected,

communication deviation, social and economic impairment, social

withdrawal and vital aim loss. These factors should be attended in

first place, as they are not only related with the triggering of illness

but they also are the main way to recovery.
