Infectious disease is a rare cause of parkinsonism. We report a 7-year-old boy who developed flu-like symptoms followed by parkinsonian features including hypophonia, hypomimia, bradykinesia, and dystonia. A T2-weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging showed high signal intensities in both basal ganglia. The results of serial serologic tests of Mycoplasma pneumonia antibody suggest that this movement disorder was associated with Mycoplasma pneumonia infection. The patient's symptoms gradually resolved, and the basal ganglionic lesions disappeared on follow-up magnetic resonance imaging.
感染性疾病是帕金森综合征的罕见病因。我们报告一名7岁男孩，他先出现类似流感的症状，随后出现帕金森氏症特征，包括声音微弱、表情减少、运动迟缓及肌张力障碍。脑部T2加权磁共振成像显示双侧基底神经节有高信号强度。肺炎支原体抗体的系列血清学检测结果表明，这种运动障碍与肺炎支原体感染有关。患者症状逐渐缓解，随访磁共振成像显示基底神经节病变消失。
