Objective: This article summarizes the current understanding of paroxysmal movement disorders, including clinical features, pathophysiology, assessment, genetics, and treatment. It additionally discusses the intriguing overlap of these disorders with epilepsy.
Latest developments: There is an expansion of the traditional genotype-phenotype correlation among paroxysmal movement disorders. A single genotype may present with many clinical presentations, and different genetic variations may present with a similar phenotype. In addition to recognizing the clinical presentation through careful history and examination, the approach to patients with paroxysmal movement disorders increasingly includes genetic testing for treatment and prognostication.
Essential points: The spectrum of paroxysmal movement disorders continues to expand. Prompt and accurate recognition of the presenting syndrome can lead to effective treatment and symptomatic relief. It is imperative to recognize secondary causes of paroxysmal movement disorders. A greater understanding of shared molecular mechanisms and genetics may help to better tailor therapeutic strategies in the future.
