Abstract
Background
Obsessive-compulsive symptoms can be seen in patients with schizophrenia. Association of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in schizophrenia can be a co-morbid association or can be induced by the antipsychotic medications too.
Method
We present here a lady with schizophrenia whose repeated washing behavior. The significance of the psychopathology and its implications in management are discussed with review of literature.
Result
The patient was initially thought to be having obsessive-compulsive symptoms, which was later found to be the result of commanding auditory hallucinations.
Conclusion
Obsessive compulsive symptoms in schizophrenia can be secondary to core schizophrenia psychopathology like auditory hallucination.
期刊介绍：
Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research publishes original papers and reviews in
biological psychiatry,
brain research,
neurology,

The journal has a focus on international and interdisciplinary basic research with clinical relevance. Translational research is particularly appreciated. Authors are allowed to submit their manuscript in their native language as supplemental data to the English version.
Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research is related to the oldest German speaking journal in this field, the Centralblatt fur Nervenheilkunde, Psychiatrie und gerichtliche Psychopathologie, founded in 1878. The tradition and idea of previous famous editors (Alois Alzheimer and Kurt Schneider among others) was continued in modernized form with Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research. Centralblatt was a journal of broad scope and relevance, now Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research represents a journal with translational and interdisciplinary perspective, focusing on clinically oriented research in psychiatry, neurology and neighboring fields of neurosciences and psychology/psychotherapy with a preference for biologically oriented research including basic research. Preference is given for papers from newly emerging fields, like clinical psychoimmunology/neuroimmunology, and ideas.
