Abstract

An elderly female patient had a two-year history of stereotyped spontaneous episodes of retropulsion, associated with head retraction, without loss of consciousness, hypertonia, dystonia, or atonia. Results of neurologic examination were normal. After removal of a right hemispheral cerebellar fibroblastic meningioma, the attacks were no longer observed. Attacks of retropulsion and cerebellar meningioma constitute an unusual clinical association.
