摘要：

We describe a patient with axial myoclonus. Myoclonus first occurred in the upper abdominal muscle and spread up to the neck muscle and down to the lower abdominal muscle. Physiological studies of the jerks revealed that the myoclonus arose in the thoracic spinal cord and spread slowly up and down the spinal cord at about 3 m/s. We conclude that the myoclonus is mediated by the propriospinal tract.
