Abstract

Bipolar mood disorder is an established psychiatric disorder affecting 1% of the population and it is a highly disabling disease. As of today, its aetiology is still a confounding question. This case is interesting as the patient presented with a full-blown mania after suffering from electrical injury. The persistent syndrome in this case could point to a unique diagnostic entity and offer possible explanation of the pathophysiology of manic depressive as well as a consideration for caution when prescribing electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
