Post-traumatic midbrain tremors.
We report 3 patients with post-traumatic tremor and describe the characteristics of the tremor and accompanying neurologic signs. Radiographic and pathologic examination indicated a contralateral midbrain localization of the lesion. The tremor responded to anticholinergic or dopaminergic therapy.
