“…It is worth mentioning that recently the first successful case of ECT given to a cochlear implant patient has been reported (Labadie et al, 2010). This suggests that ECT may remain as a future option for our patient if her depression became resistant to other therapy.…”

Significant recovery of sensorineural hearing loss in either ear after cochlear implantation (CI) is rare. We present the case of a 57-year-old lady with medically treated depression and a background of chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) in the non-implanted ear, who clearly fulfilled audiological criteria for CI. Two years post-implantation her CSOM in the non-implanted ear was addressed with blind sac closure of the ear. Post-operatively the hearing thresholds in this ear had improved to the extent that a bone-anchored hearing aid became a viable option. The literature is carefully reviewed to consider possible explanations of this phenomenon.

“…To summarize the current understanding on the management of delirious mania, electroconvulsive therapy/lorazepam was found to be effective for the treatment of delirious mania in most of the available reports, with few reports providing evidence for mood stabilizers as well. [ 1 2 6 7 8 9 ] Nonmalignant delirious mania responds to atypical antipsychotics and mood stabilizers. [ 10 11 ] Delirium usually resolves faster than mania.…”

Little is known about the entity of delirious mania, apart from a few reports. Delirious mania, though a potentially lethal condition, has not found a place in the current classification system. We discuss the approach to the identification and management of delirious mania in a female patient presenting with catatonic and delirious features, with a past history of recurrent mood episodes. However, it must be emphasized that it is likely to be a rare clinical presentation of bipolar disorder and should not be the first diagnostic consideration. As a rule, any patient presenting with delirium or clouded consciousness first warrants a thorough medical workup and other specialty referrals.
