Abstract: Focal or segmental dyskinesia is a rare phenomenon manifesting as an involuntary movement. We report a 15-year-old female with bilateral spontaneous, semi-rhythmic, involuntary movements of the ear briefly suppressible by distraction and completely disappeared on sleep. Her symptoms didn’t improve with medications. In this case report, we have reviewed the existing literature and it seems that further studies will improve our knowledge regarding this syndrome and its treatment modalities. However, meanwhile based on the available evidence, we propose a trial of botulinum toxin for the treatment.
