In patients with hand-foot synkinesis, lesions of not only the secondary motor areas but also the cerebellum should be considered.

The supplementary motor area coordinates movements. Synkinesia is a rare disorder in which an involuntary movement occurs coordinated with a voluntary movement. Here, we test the hypothesis that the supplementary motor area is involved in involuntary coordination of movement.
