Abstract
We present a case report of a 38-year-old woman who presented to the hospital with acute onset high amplitude, non-rhythmic, hyperkinetic movements of the right upper extremity, abnormal sensation of the right upper extremity from the elbow to the hand, and the inability to recognize her hand without visual input. This case discusses the differential diagnoses of acute hyperkinetic movement disorders and concurrent alien-limb in a patient presenting within the time window for vascular intervention. Readers are led through the reasoning behind acute interventional decision-making in a patient with a rare presentation. Workup reveals the eventual diagnosis.
