AB A 27-year-old man positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
presented with severe depressive stupor, peripheral neuropathy, and
myelopathy. The onset of psychiatric symptoms, closely followed by
neurological symptoms, without other possible somatic etiology suggests
that HIV itself might precipitate psychosis. The patient was treated
successfully with electroconvulsive therapy. The advantages and risks
are discussed.
