Abstract

Congenital mirror movement disorder is a rare presentation to a pediatric neurologist. In literature, only a few conditions are known to be associated with it. We describe a child who presented with the only complaint of imitation movements in contra-lateral upper limb and diagnosed to have nodular heterotopias and partial block cervical vertebrae.
