Abstract

Delayed neurological findings due to carbon monoxide poisoning are changes in cognition and personality, psychotic behavior and parkinsonism. Rarely, these patients have movement disorders such dystonia, chorea and myoclonus. In this case study, we reported a case in which myoclonus appeared in the late stage of CO poisoning. Key words: Carbon monoxide poisoning, Movement disorders, Myoclonus.

Özet

değişiklikleri, psikotik davranışlar ve parkinson benzeri klinik tablodur. Seyrek olarak bu hastalarda distoni, kore ve myoklonus gibi hareket bozuklukları gelişmektedir. Bu yazıda karbon monoksit zehirlenmesinin geç döneminde myoklonus ortaya çıkan bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Anahtar kelimeler: Karbon monoksit zehirlenmesi, Hareket bozukluğu, Myokloni.
