A 22-year-old male awoke with right foot drop and numbness. Nerve conduction studies, sural nerve biopsy, and molecular genetic analysis were consistent with hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy (HNPP). Two months later he developed involuntary flexion/extension movements of the right toes with associated intermittent dystonic flexion of the right foot. Over the next 2 months these movements spread to the left foot and hand and myoclonus of the left trapezius and rhomboid appeared. This is the first case report of moving toes syndrome and segmental myoclonus in association with HNPP. The temporal and topographic patterns of spread of the abnormal movements suggest a central mechanism probably induced by peripheral pathology.

一名22岁的男性醒来,右脚跌落麻木。神经传导研究,腓肠神经活检和分子遗传学分析与遗传性神经病并伴有压力性麻痹 (HNPP) 一致。两个月后,他出现了右脚趾的不自主屈伸运动,并伴有右脚的间歇性肌张力障碍屈曲。在接下来的2个月中,这些运动扩散到左斜方肌的左脚,手和肌阵挛,并出现菱形。这是第一例与HNPP相关的活动脚趾综合征和节段性肌阵挛的病例报告。异常运动扩散的时间和地形模式表明可能是由周围病理引起的中心机制。
