Opsoclonus myoclonus ataxia syndrome due to falciparum malaria in two Indian children.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Opsoclonus-myoclonus ataxia (OMA) syndrome is rare in children, mostly caused by neuroblastoma. Here, we present two very rare cases presenting with OMA due to falciparum malaria. Both of them responded to a high dose of adrenocorticotrophin hormone and intravenous immunoglobulin without recurrence and complication.
