A patient with kinesigenic focal motor seizures induced by tongue-jaw movement had a grade III astrocytoma clearly co-localizing with the epileptic network in the appropriate peri-rolandic, motor-sensory, lingual-jaw cortical area. The clinical seizure phenomena were time-locked with the EEG epileptic activity. [Published with video sequences].

Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) is characterized by transient and recurrent involuntary movements that are triggered by a sudden movement. Here, we report an elderly female patient with a 1-month history of paroxysmal rigidity of the right limb. As the symptoms were characterized as paroxysmal, transient, and repetitive, her condition was initially thought to be epilepsy.

encodes the pore-forming 1 subunit of the neuronal voltage-gated Cav2.1 (P/Q-type) channels, which are predominantly localized at the presynaptic terminals of the brain and cerebellar neurons and play an important role in controlling neurotransmitter release. Mutations in have been associated with several autosomal dominant neurologic disorders, including familial hemiplegic migraine type 1, episodic ataxia type 2 (EA2), and spinocerebellar ataxia type 6.

An 11-year-old male patient developed weakness or right arm elevation after sudden movement at the age of eight. Reflex epilepsy was initially suspected; however, magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalography (EEG) revealed no abnormality. Video-EEG monitoring was performed, but no change was noted during attacks of weakness.
