Intellectual and behavioral deterioration in an individual who is mentally retarded presents a diagnostic challenge to the clinician, since the deterioration may be the result of the primary disorder or a new process. The mentally retarded individual's limitations in communication make the diagnostic assessment more difficult. The authors report the case of pseudodementia in a mentally retarded teenager presumed to have been caused by impacted otic cerumen and corrected by removal of the cerumen. The discussion includes a review of medical, neurologic, psychiatric, and environmental causes of intellectual and behavioral deterioration.
