Abstract
The following presentation introduces a case of a patient with the restless genital syndrome. This is a rare, usually undiagnosed condition, in which significant organ damage and/or dysfunction is absent, the finding is defined as functional and the patient is referred for treatment of his neurosis in a psychiatric practice. The complaints include feeling of arousal and tingling in the genital area, which is not accompanied by subjective sexual arousal and is a harrowing experience for the patient. Masturbation and sexual activity do not manage to affect the symptoms. Symptoms of restless leg syndrome are often involved too, which puts the hypothesis for a common etiology of both of the syndromes that is associated with the dopaminergic mediation. In the literature, there are individual cases of patients with the syndrome, who have been administrated treatment with pramipexole. The patient in the present case report has also undergone treatment with pramipexole and has been observed for a period of two years.
