A case of a delusional psychotic syndrome in the setting of Werner's syndrome (adult progeria)

TC Tannock and RF Cook
Ealing Hospital, Southall, Middlesex.

The literature on Werner's syndrome is scarce, and to our knowledge, no documented evidence is available to substantiate central nervous system involvement in this multisystem disease. We present a case of Werner's syndrome associated with recurrent delusional psychosis in the presence of cognitive impairment and computerised tomography (CT) radiological changes in the posterior cerebral cortex.
