AB Paroxysmal  movement  disorders  may  be  mistaken  as  seizure  activity  due  to  similar  clinical  characteristics  and  often  overlapping  treatment  strategies.  This  chapter  reviews  the  paroxysmal  movement  disorders,  highlighting  their  key  clinical  features  and  emphasizing  the  differences  between  episodic  movement  and  seizure  disorders.  Distinction  between  these  disease  entities  may  lead  to  more  accurate  and  rapid  diagnoses.
