This phenomenon appeared when her involved leg swinged with a pace in 0.7 to 1 sec, and her gait with this 'S-shape swing' was stable. We tried the gait exercise, making her walk continually with the pace described above. About two months later after onset, she was able to walk stably and continually with this 'S-shape swing.' From the video analysis, we found that the 'S-shape swing' was synchronizing with the frequency of her ballistic movement which was 1 to 1.5 Hz. This gait exercise may be good for the patients with gait disturbance due to hemiballistic movement, and it may allow them to walk independently at the earlier stage after onset., 金沢大学医薬保健研究域保健学系}, pages = {283--286}, title = {歩行時に独特な振り出しパターン(S字パターン)を呈したHemiballismの一症例}, volume = {34}, year = {1997} }
