Choreoathetosis- MedGen UID:
- 39313
- •Concept ID:
- C0085583

Hemiballismus- MedGen UID:
- 67443
- •Concept ID:
- C0221169
- •
- Finding
Hemiballismus is a rare movement disorder that is caused primarily by damage to various areas in the basal ganglia. Hemiballismus is usually characterized by involuntary flinging motions of the extremities. The movements are often violent and have wide amplitudes of motion. They are continuous and random and can involve proximal and/or distal muscles on one side of the body, while some cases even include the facial muscles. The more a patient is active, the more the movements increase. With relaxation comes a decrease in movements.
Bradykinesia- MedGen UID:
- 115925
- •Concept ID:
- C0233565
- •
- Sign or Symptom
Bradykinesia literally means slow movement, and is used clinically to denote a slowness in the execution of movement (in contrast to hypokinesia, which is used to refer to slowness in the initiation of movement).
Cerebral atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 116012
- •Concept ID:
- C0235946
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Atrophy (wasting, decrease in size of cells or tissue) affecting the cerebrum.
Parkinsonian disorder- MedGen UID:
- 66079
- •Concept ID:
- C0242422
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Characteristic neurologic anomaly resulting from degeneration of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain, characterized clinically by shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking and gait.
Polymicrogyria- MedGen UID:
- 78605
- •Concept ID:
- C0266464
- •
- Congenital Abnormality
Polymicrogyria is a congenital malformation of the cerebral cortex characterized by abnormal cortical layering (lamination) and an excessive number of small gyri (folds).
Hypoplasia of the corpus callosum- MedGen UID:
- 138005
- •Concept ID:
- C0344482
- •
- Congenital Abnormality
Underdevelopment of the corpus callosum.
Truncal ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 96535
- •Concept ID:
- C0427190
- •
- Sign or Symptom
Truncal ataxia is a sign of ataxia characterized by instability of the trunk. It usually occurs during sitting.
Inability to walk- MedGen UID:
- 107860
- •Concept ID:
- C0560046
- •
- Finding
Incapability to ambulate.
Gait ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 155642
- •Concept ID:
- C0751837
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A type of ataxia characterized by the impairment of the ability to coordinate the movements required for normal walking. Gait ataxia is characteirzed by a wide-based staggering gait with a tendency to fall.
Head titubation- MedGen UID:
- 299071
- •Concept ID:
- C1608410
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A head tremor of moderate speed (3 to 4 Hz) in the anterior-posterior direction.
Absent speech- MedGen UID:
- 340737
- •Concept ID:
- C1854882
- •
- Finding
Complete lack of development of speech and language abilities.
Delayed CNS myelination- MedGen UID:
- 867393
- •Concept ID:
- C4021758
- •
- Anatomical Abnormality
Delayed myelination in the central nervous system.
Hypertonia- MedGen UID:
- 10132
- •Concept ID:
- C0026826
- •
- Finding
A condition in which there is increased muscle tone so that arms or legs, for example, are stiff and difficult to move.
Hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 10133
- •Concept ID:
- C0026827
- •
- Finding
Hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle). Even when relaxed, muscles have a continuous and passive partial contraction which provides some resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia thus manifests as diminished resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia is not the same as muscle weakness, although the two conditions can co-exist.
Rigidity- MedGen UID:
- 7752
- •Concept ID:
- C0026837
- •
- Sign or Symptom
Continuous involuntary sustained muscle contraction. When an affected muscle is passively stretched, the degree of resistance remains constant regardless of the rate at which the muscle is stretched. This feature helps to distinguish rigidity from muscle spasticity.
Microcephaly- MedGen UID:
- 1644158
- •Concept ID:
- C4551563
- •
- Finding
Head circumference below 2 standard deviations below the mean for age and gender.

- •Concept ID:
- C0424448
- •
- Finding
A lack of facial expression often with staring eyes and a slightly open mouth.
