title: Neurophysiological and magnetic resonance studies in a patient with hemiballismus.
abstract: A case of hemiballismus is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a cavernous hemangioma in the mesencephalon. The hemiballismus in the biceps and triceps muscles was associated with prolonged bursts of EMG activity.
