    This study describes a rare genetic disorder combining Eulenburg's paramyotonia and periodic paralysis in one family. Further gene mapping is crucial to determine if this represents a distinct disease entity.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Genetics
    • Rare Diseases

    Background:

    • Eulenburg's paramyotonia and periodic paralysis are distinct genetic neuromuscular disorders.
    • Understanding their combined presentation is essential for accurate diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • A single family presented with a rare combination of Eulenburg's paramyotonia and periodic paralysis.
    • Clinical polymorphism was observed within the family members affected by this combined condition.

    Findings:

    • The co-occurrence of these two conditions in one family raises questions about their nosological relationship.
    • Existing literature data is reviewed to contextualize this rare combined presentation.

    Implications:

    • Gene mapping is proposed as a critical step to definitively classify this disorder as a unique nosological entity.
