ABSTRACT

Mirror movement is a rare condition and refers to involuntary movements that occur in homologous contralateral muscles during their voluntary movement. Mirror movements are present during normal development, decrease with maturation, and rarely persist beyond the first decade. The exact pathophysiology of this syndrome is still unclear. They may persist into adult life as the result of early cerebral damage due to stroke or congenital malformations (as in Klippel-Feil syndrome) or on a genetic basis transmitted as an autosomal dominant condition. Here, we have presented a rare case of observed isolated mirror movement in a male.
