Abstract
The label Holmes' tremor defines a rare symptomatic movement disorder frequently occurring with midbrain damage. It appears at rest and worsens adopting a posture and on attempting movements. We describe the case of a patient with Holmes' tremor due to a presumed Toxoplasma abscess of the midbrain. The positive response to a combined therapy with levodopa and isoniazid is also reported.Entities:
