A restless abdomen and propriospinal myoclonus like at sleep onset: an unusual overlap syndrome. (27th March 2015) - Baiardi, Simone
Abstract : We report for the first time the association between restless abdomen, a phenotypic variant of restless legs syndrome in which symptoms are limited to the abdomen, and propriospinal myoclonus at sleep onset causing severe insomnia. The treatment with a low-dosage of dopaminergic drug (pramipexole) induced the immediate disappearance of both symptoms, which was documented by video-polysomnography.
