The case of a patient with essential tremor in whom tremor disappeared on the right side after a homolateral cerebellar infarct is reported. The pathophysiology of essential tremor remains unknown. Vascular and surgical lesions of dentorubrothalamic pathway have been reported to improve various kinds of tremor including essential tremor. In this patient, a lesion of this pathway related to the cerebellar infarct probably explains the homolateral cessation of essential tremor.
报告了一例特发性震颤患者，其在同侧小脑梗死之后右侧震颤消失。特发性震颤的病理生理学仍不清楚。据报道，齿状红核丘脑束通路的血管性和手术性病变可改善包括特发性震颤在内的各种震颤。在该患者中，与小脑梗死相关的这一通路病变可能解释了同侧特发性震颤的停止。
