Abstract:
A case of 2-year and 3-month-old boy developing right hemiballismus and transient selective unilateral involvement in the left thalamus on MRI during Influenza A infection is reported. Hemiballismus is an extremely rare neurological complication and, to our knowledge, this is the first case showing hemiballismus during Influenza A infection.
