Abstract:
The report elaborated a case of a 52-year-old female patients with over 10 years of schizophrenia complicating 12 months of stupor. After a course of modified electroconvulsive therapy（MECT） combined with risperidone oral solution， the patient gradually became active and functionally recovered， and remained stable. This case suggests that MECT combined with risperidone may allow schizophrenia patients in a state of prolonged stupor to obtain clinical rehabilitation and effectively stabilize psychotic symptoms. The discussion is based on this case with a view to providing references for clinical treatment.
