Successful Treatment of Essential Palatal Tremor Lasting Over a Long Term with a Rare Application of Botulinum Toxin in a Child.
Abstract
Objective Essential Palatal Tremor (PT) is a disorder in which radiological brain images appear normal but the clicking noise caused by peritubal, palatal muscle contractions remains the main complaint of patients. The condition occurs rarely in childhood. This paper demonstrates such a rare case with bilateral presentation of essential PT in a 12-yr-old girl could successfully be treated with botulinum toxin therapy at Otorhinolaryngology Department in 2013, as she was still asymptomatic after 16 months. Besides, being minimally invasive with negligible side effects, this choice of treatment with botulinum toxin A (BTA) leads to a long-term symptom free outcome from essential PT.
