Abstract: | Recent reviews attest to the safety and efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in psychiatrically ill patients with concomitant neurologic disease. Four patients with mood disorders and cerebral palsy are described who achieved a therapeutic response with ECT without neurologic deterioration. ECT is safe in the treatment of mood disorders in patients with cerebral palsy. |
