Annotation:

Koro is an unusual psychogenic syndrome reported, until recently, predominantly in men of the Chinese race who live in southern China and south-east Asia. Issues concerning its phenomenology, diagnosis and nosology are still controversial. This paper describes an epidemic of koro in north-east India. A psychiatric analysis of thirty-one cases is presented. Probable reasons for the rapid spread of the illness are discussed. The majority of the individuals affected were from the lower socio-economic strata, were poorly educated and in the age group of 20–40 years. Many women were affected. There was no evidence of significant premorbid or sexual psychopathology in most cases. Some patients had a number of episodes but with only minor residual symptoms. The author compares these findings with earlier reports and discusses the implications for its nosology and psychodynamics.

Annotation:

The koro syndrome is a triad of deep-seated fear of penile shrinkage, its disappearance into the abdomen and consequent death. The disorder, which is considered culture related, is endemic in South-East Asia and China, where it occurs in both epidemic and sporadic form. In the western hemisphere single cases are occasionally encountered. The association with psychiatric pathology in sporadic cases of koro has been well described, but lately attention has been drawn to systemic or neurologic involvement in these patients. The clinical, historical and cultural features of koro, as well as therapeutic strategies, are discussed.

Annotation:

Koro (genital retraction syndrome) is a culture-linked psychogenic reactive state. In females, the cardinal symptom is the perception of retraction or shrinkage of nipple or breast mass into the chest cavity or of labia into the abdomen with acute fear of either imminent death or sexual invalidism. This paper is the first attempt in the world literature to explore the detailed clinical characteristics of koro in 48 females drawn from an epidemic in India.

ABSTRACT Koro is a term, probably of Malayasian origin, a culture bound syndrome, which refers to an episode of sudden and intense anxiety that the penis will recede into the body and possibly cause death. The syndrome is reported in South and East Asia including Eastern India, occasionally found in west. It can occur in localized epidemic and sporadic form or in complete and incomplete form. In some, this is reported as a forerunner of mood disorder and is understood in the context of psychosexual conflicts, personality and culture. Moreover, reports of sporadic Koro are rare from Noneastern India and report of a holistic and comprehensive approach to understand and manage such cases are lacking. Hence, In today's era of extinction of psychotherapeutic treatments particularly in India, this rare case is a small example of how such comprehensive holistic treatments can be helpful to our population.

Annotation:

IntroductionKoro syndrome has traditionally been considered a culturally bound syndrome, characterized by the delusional belief that one's genitalia are retracting and the anxiety caused by the perception of imminent death. Although it is widely regarded as an epidemic in South-east Asia, there are some isolated cases in other cultures as well.ObjectivesWe present a Koro case study and a systematic review, focusing on the presentation and its treatment, in order to make visible this syndrome to Western culture and provide the tools to identify it.AimsTo provide an overview of Koro's presentation, phenomenology and treatment. We also want to clarify the nosology classification of this syndrome and its influence in the reported cases.MethodsWe begin describing a new case of Koro syndrome: a Spanish male presented an acute psychosis, the patient had an intellectual disability and a family history of mental illness. A systematic review was done based on articles published in Pubmed following the PRISMA guidelines.ResultsFrom 117 studies, only 29 met the inclusion criteria. Data were analyzed on several epidemiological and clinical characteristics. We found that Koro syndrome is more often presented as a result of intoxication or as a part of a previous known psychotic disorder. Cases involving patients sharing their delusion have been only reported in Asia.ConclusionNo specific data could be obtained about epidemiology and pathogenesis, as our conclusion about Koro syndrome was based mainly on few case studies. Pharmacotherapy and social support may be effective in ameliorating the symptoms.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Annotation:

Koro involves the spurious belief that certain body parts, such as the penis in men and the vulva in women, are retracting into the body. The origin of the word, “koro,” is connected to the Malaysian term for the retracting of a turtle’s head. Upon complete retraction of the body part in question, death is the feared consequence. The first descriptions of koro-like symptoms (with some similarity to panic disorder symptomatology) can be found in ancient Chinese medical records that are over two thousand years old. Although koro is often thought to be a disorder associated with Asian populations, cases in other parts of the world have been regularly reported. Moreover, koro can occur as individualized cases or full-blown epidemics. Certain indigenous treatment practices can be dangerous, and several means of treating the possible conditions underlying koro are discussed.
