Abstract: CLINICAL PRACTICEand position-sensitive dystonic movements, bearing close resemblance with the "wing-beating" tremor reported in other dystonic syndromes.3 Notably, the parkinsonian tremor affecting his upper limbs in the OFF condition was phenomenologically very different and this might have been a clue to suspect a different pathophysiological mechanism, beyond the (missed) temporal pattern of occurrence with the Levodopa intakes.Accurate recognition of this rare phenomenology was crucial to ensure appropriate management.It is unknown whether his GBA1 status is related to this phenomenon.Atypical dyskinesia has been reported in GBA1 patients 4 but dystonia is not more frequent in GBA1 carriers than in other genetic forms of early-onset PD.
