Abstract
Some patients with severe mental disorders

are refractory to psychotherapeutic or psychopharmacological

interventions. We

describe a patient with severe symptoms from

the age of 16 to 44. Her illness is best

described as a schizo-affective disorder.

Several series of electroconvulsive therapy

(ECT) followed by maintenance once a week

for more than six years has kept her out of hospital

beds for three years. The patient demonstrates

the feasibility of long term ECT and the

absence of disturbing cognitive reductions
