Abstract
Spinal myoclonus developed after regional anesthesia is quite rare. They are sudden onset, involuntary, short focal or segmental contractions in a single muscle or a muscle group.

We aimed to present the spinal myoclonus we observed in our case caused by the administration of bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia.
