✦ Synopsis

Abstract

We present a patient with myoclonus of the left hand appearing 1 month after surgical correction of a stenosing tenosynovitis of the thumb. An extensive fibrosis of the external palmar digital nerve was shown, and the successful liberation of this median nerve terminal branch completely and rapidly eliminated the movement disorder. © 2001 Movement Disorder Society.
