Abstract
A severe episode of dystonia refractory to standard drug therapy has been labeled
as status dystonicus or dystonic storm. We report the development of this
complication in a 10-year old boy with idiopathic torsion dystonia, the probable
precipitating factor being either an infection or introduction of clonazepam.
