Pain insensitivity in schizophrenia. Case report and review of the literature.

Abstract:

:We describe a schizophrenic man whose lack of pain and related objective signs of a perforated small bowel led to a delay in diagnosis and surgical intervention. A review of the literature suggests that both psychodynamic and specific biologic factors can produce atypical presentations in psychotic patients with illnesses in which pain is characteristically a prominent presenting symptom. While research into the cause of altered pain perception in psychotic patients is continuing, clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion of serious medical illness when evaluating such patients.
