Abstract:
A 55 year-old, right-handed, man developed a progressive writer's cramp spreading to a right hemidystonia. He had a left paramedian frontal meningioma. The association of an hemidystonia with contralateral lesions in the basal ganglia has been often reported. Its occurrence with a frontal lesion appear to be much less frequent. This association suggests a possible disorder of frontostriatal connections.
