Abstract

The case of an 82-year-old woman with delusional infestation and senile dementia of the Alzheimer type is reported. Her symptoms of infestation ceased dramatically with pimozide given for 5 weeks, and did not recur during follow-up over 9 months. The importance of organic factors in patients with this disorder is emphasised.
