Abstract

Inappropriate hypersexual behaviors have been frequently reported in subjects with autism, however, literature on management of such behaviors in this group is very limited. In this paper, we describe an adolescent with autistic disorder and mental retardation who developed severe inappropriate sexual behaviors and has been treated successfully with risperidone-paroxetine combination. As presence of hypersexual behaviors in individuals with autism is a distressing factor for their family and social environment, appropriate management seems to be essential.

Özet

Uygunsuz hiperseksüel davranışlar otizmi olan bireylerde sıklıkla bildirilmesine rağmen, yazında bu davranışların kontrol altına alınması ile ilgili yeterli bilgi bulunmamaktadır. Bu yazıda otistik bozukluğu ve zekâ geriliği olan bir ergen olguda aşırı uygunsuz cinsel davranışların risperidon–paroksetin kombinasyonu ile tedavisi sunulmuştur. Otizmi olan kişilerde aşırı cinsel uğraşlar aile ve çevre için stres kaynağı oluşturabilir, bu nedenle uygun tedavi yaklaşımları önemlidir. (Nöropsikiyatri Arflivi 2012; 49: 311-313)
