Athetosis
|
Also called athetosis. A condition in which the fingers, toes, face, tongue, etc. make repeated, slow, purposeless, involuntary movements. It is common in children, and some cases are indistinguishable from chorea. It can be bilateral or unilateral. There is also symptomatic athetosis, which can be seen as an aftereffect of cerebral palsy or stroke.
