Paroxysmal Hypnogenic Dyskinesia (PHD) is a rare movement disorder characterized by involuntary movements, including chorea, athetosis, ballismus, and dystonia, which occur during the Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep stage. Therefore, the diagnosis of PHD is highly crucial due to the presence of differential diagnoses such as epilepsy and other sleep disorders. Although numerous mutations have been identified, the etiology of PHD, which arises from dysregulation in basal ganglia functions, remains unclear. We wanted to present a case of a nineteen-year-old girl diagnosed with PHD to draw attention to the diagnosis, etiology, and treatment of PHD.

阵发性睡眠性运动障碍(PHD)是一种罕见的运动障碍,其特征为在非快速眼动(NREM)睡眠阶段出现不自主运动,包括舞蹈样动作、手足徐动症、投掷症和肌张力障碍。因此,由于存在癫痫和其他睡眠障碍等鉴别诊断,PHD的诊断至关重要。尽管已鉴定出许多突变,但由基底神经节功能失调引起的PHD病因仍不清楚。我们想介绍一例被诊断为PHD的19岁女孩的病例,以引起对PHD诊断、病因和治疗的关注。
