Mutism and rigidity due to antipsychotic‐induced catatonia improved by hemodialysis: A case report
While this case showed a rapid improvement in AIC following hemodialysis, no robust evidence implicating AIC and hemodialysis has been reported to date. This case suggests the potential role of hemodialysis in improving AIC symptoms. Further research to better understand the relationship between AIC and hemodialysis and the underlying mechanisms of catatonia is required.
