Abstract

We report a 30-year-old man with moving ear syndrome caused by focal myoclonic jerks of the right temporal muscle. This focal myoclonus would disappear while the patient was sleeping, swallowing, or speaking. He was treated with botulinum toxin type A with a favorable outcome. Previous reports of this condition and possible therapeutic approaches are discussed.

摘要

我们报告一例30岁男性，患有由右侧颞肌局灶性肌阵挛引起的动耳综合征。这种局灶性肌阵挛在患者睡眠、吞咽或说话时会消失。他接受了A型肉毒杆菌毒素治疗，效果良好。本文还讨论了此前关于该病症的报道及可能的治疗方法。
