Abstract:
We report a 31-year-old woman presenting flutter-like oscillation after acute infection. Ten days after low fever and diarrhea, she presented transient, horizontal and pendular ocular oscillation. This abnormal eye movement was diagnosed as flutter-like oscillation (FLO). Other neurological findings were normal. Cerebrospinal fluid was normal. Brain MRI revealed no particular abnormalities. Serum titers for anti-GD1a antibody were elevated. After treatment with steroid (1,000 mg/day methylprednisolone DIV), the FLO disappeared.
