title: A unique case of reversible hyperglycemic Holmes' tremor.
abstract: Various movement disorders are known manifestations of nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH). Hyperglycemic tremors are rare, with only two cases resembling flapping tremors reported in literature. We present a unique case of reversible hyperglycemic Holmes' tremor associated with NKH and postulate the underlying pathophysiology of this condition.
