Abstract:
A case of an acute dyskinesia of a young, schizophrenic woman caused by neuroleptic therapy is reported. The acute dyskinesia was the reason for a complete luxation in the jaw-joint. The patient showed phenomenons (brain-atrophy, cognitive dysfunction, negative symptoms) which are discussed to be connected with acute dyskinesia. They also are a danger-signal regarding the beginning of a tardive dyskinesia.
