MR demonstration of cryptic vascular malformation producing a palatal myoclonus--a case report

J Korean Med Sci. 1989 Sep;4(3):139-41. doi: 10.3346/jkms.1989.4.3.139.

Abstract

A 47-year-old man had suffered oscillopsia associated with palatal myoclonus for 10 years. High-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cryptic vascular malformation within the "Guillain-Mollaret triangle" which was thought to be the responsible lesion.
