Paroxysmal dyskinesia

Paroxysmal dyskinesia (PD) is a rare heterogenous group of movement disorders manifesting as abnormal involuntary movements that recur episodically and last only a brief time. PD includes paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD), paroxysmal non-kinesigenic dyskinesia (PNKD), paroxysmal exertion-induced dyskinesia (PED) and a variant form of PKD, infantile convulsion and choreoathetosis (ICCA syndrome) (see these terms).
