Post-traumatic tremor in child after mild head trauma

Abstract

Despite the fact that movement disorders can be noted after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), there are very few cases in the literature regarding children with a mild head injury. In addition, their pathophysiological mechanism, radiological features, and treatment options have not been well described yet. Hereby, we report a case of a 3-year-old girl who suffered a head injury after a two-meter fall, resulting in generalized body tremor and dystonia.
