Rabbit syndrome in a neuroleptic naive patient with associated basal ganglia perfusion alterations treated with madopar fade‒out of perioral tremor after administration of L‒DOPA: role of thalamus in pathophysiology of post‒stroke rabbit syndrome
Abstract:Rabbit syndrome is an extrapyramidal side effect that has been linked with chronic antipsychotic therapy. We report herein a rare case of rabbit syndrome that occurred withoutin administration of a neuroleptics naive patient. A 90-year old female exhibited a perioral tremor movement disorder resembling rabbit syndrome, although she the patient revealed no previous psychiatric history and had never taken antipsychotic medication. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) revealed increased perfusion of… Show more
