摘要
Background: Acute to subacute pediatric movement disorders require prompt diagnosis to identify potentially treatable diseases. Case Report: We present a 6 -year -old male with a three-week history of generalized chorea transitioning to predominantly right -sided hemichorea and then to left hemiplegia. Discussion: We review the mechanisms in tuberculous meningitis underlying his movement abnormalities.
