Yoshida K. Peripherally induced movement disorders in the stomatognathic system after oral surgical or dental procedures. Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024:10.1007/s10006-024-01285-4.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Peripherally induced movement disorders (PIMD) are hyperkinetic movement disorders that can occur after injury to a part of the body. This study aimed to identify PIMD in the stomatognathic system following dental or oral surgical procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 229 patients with PIMD (144 women and 85 men; mean age: 53.4 years) triggered by oral surgical or dental interventions were evaluated retrospectively. RESULTS The average latency between the procedures and onset of PIMD was 14.3 days. Oral surgery (40.2%), including tooth extraction, trauma treatment, and other surgical procedures, was the most frequent trigger of PIMD. This was followed by general dental treatment, including periodontal, endodontic, and restorative procedures (36.7%), prosthetic treatment (19.7%), and orthodontic treatment (3.5%). PIMD consisted of oromandibular dystonia (73.8%), functional (psychogenic) movement disorders (11.4%), orolingual dyskinesia (7.9%), and hemimasticatory spasms (5.7%). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that even minor alterations in normal anatomy or physiology after dental procedures may result in PIMD in predisposing patients. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Dental professionals should be aware that although infrequently, PIMD can develop after various dental treatments. If such symptoms precipitate, the attending physician should properly explain them to the patient and provide appropriate treatment or consultation with a movement disorder specialist.

Yoshida K. Hemimasticatory spasm: a series of 17 cases and a comprehensive review of the literature. Front Neurol 2024; 15:1377289. [PMID: 38566853 PMCID: PMC10986637 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1377289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Hemimasticatory spasm (HMS) is a rare movement disorder characterized by paroxysmal spasms or twitches of the unilateral jaw-closing muscles. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the clinical features of patients with HMS. Data from 17 patients newly diagnosed with HMS (12 females and 5 males; mean age at onset: 46.7 years) who visited our department were retrospectively analyzed, and a literature search based on electronic medical databases from their inception until November 30, 2023, was conducted. A manual search was conducted for articles cited in the related literature. A total of 117 cases (72 females and 45 males; mean age at onset: 37.1 years) from 57 studies were analyzed. The muscles involved were the masseter (97.4%), temporalis (47.9%), and medial pterygoid (6%). Morphea or scleroderma was observed in 23.9% of the patients, and facial hemiatrophy in 27.4%. In 17.9% of the cases, Parry-Romberg syndrome was either complicated or suspected. Typical electromyographic findings included the absence of a silent period during spasms (23.9%) and irregular brief bursts of multiple motor unit potentials. Oral medicines, such as clonazepam or carbamazepine, alleviated the symptoms for some patients but were often unsatisfactory. Botulinum toxin therapy was effective in most cases. Recently, microvascular decompression surgery is increasingly being used, resulting in complete relief in some cases. In conclusion, highly effective modalities are currently available, and it is necessary to raise awareness of HMS to ensure that it can be diagnosed and treated accurately by both medical and dental professionals.

Abstract
Dystonia is a highly prevalent movement disorder that can manifest at any time across the lifespan. An increasing number of investigations have tied this disorder to dysfunction of a broad "dystonia network" encompassing the cerebellum, thalamus, basal ganglia, and cortex. However, pinpointing how dysfunction of the various anatomic components of the network produces the wide variety of dystonia presentations across etiologies remains a difficult problem. In this review, a discussion of functional network findings in non-mendelian etiologies of dystonia is undertaken. Initially acquired etiologies of dystonia and how lesion location leads to alterations in network function are explored, first through an examination of cerebral palsy, in which early brain injury may lead to dystonic/dyskinetic forms of the movement disorder. The discussion of acquired etiologies then continues with an evaluation of the literature covering dystonia resulting from focal lesions followed by the isolated focal dystonias, both idiopathic and task dependent. Next, how the dystonia network responds to therapeutic interventions, from the "geste antagoniste" or "sensory trick" to botulinum toxin and deep brain stimulation, is covered with an eye towards finding similarities in network responses with effective treatment. Finally, an examination of how focal network disruptions in mouse models has informed our understanding of the circuits involved in dystonia is provided. Together, this article aims to offer a synthesis of the literature examining dystonia from the perspective of brain networks and it provides grounding for the perspective of dystonia as disorder of network function.
