| Abstract |
|
Periodic paralysis is a group of diseases of unknown cause characterized by recurrent attacks of weakness or paralysis of the limb muscles, accompanied by loss of deep reflexes and failure of the muscles to respond to electrical stimulation. We have experienced a case of periodic paralysis in a 8-year-old boy who had frequent
attacks of flaccid paralysis of the trunk and limb muscles. The diagnosis was easily established by clinical features and electromyographic findings. A brief review of literatures was given on this subject.
