Is there any treatment? What is the prognosis? What research is being done? ... Organizations What is Alternating Hemiplegia? Alternating hemiplegia is a rare neurological disorder that develops in childhood, usually before the first 4 years. The disorder is characterized by recurrent but temporary episodes of paralysis on one side of the body. The paralysis can affect eye movements, limbs, or facial muscles. One form of the disorder, identified very recently, has a favorable outlook. It occurs primarily at night, when a child awakens, and is apparently related to migraine. These children have no other mental or neurological impairments. In more serious cases symptoms may include mental impairment, balance and gait difficulties, excessive sweating, and changes in body temperature. Seizures can occur. Sleep helps in the recovery from the periods of paralysis but the paralysis can recur upon waking. The cause of the disorder is unknown.

printer friendly ALTERNATING HEMIPLEGIA home more about us in your area conditions information ... how you can help search this site Alternating hemiplegia is a condition which has transient weakness of either, or sometimes both, sides of the body. The attacks may alternate or sometimes overlap, that is the second side is affected before the first recovers. Attacks start in the first year of life and are often accompanied by unusual irregular eye movements. The attacks last from less than an hour which is unusual to sometimes several days. When the attacks are prolonged the manifestations are not apparent during sleep or for the first 15-20 minutes on waking when they then return. This is a very characteristic finding and when there are bilateral attacks this may allow feeding and drinking to occur in that short clear period after waking. The episodes of hemiplegia are not epileptic in nature but epileptic seizures may co-exist and require separate anti-epileptic drug treatment. The cause is not known. Affected children usually have significant learning disabilities and motor organisational problems, including unsteadiness. There is a tendency for these problems to increase with repeated episodes.

He did pretty well the next two years while on phenobarbital. Since that time, he has had increasing "seizure" activity which was treated with tegretol and depakote. His seizure activity continued. EEGs have never shown epileptic waveforms. In July, he had an EEG and developed nystagmus and mouth sucking during photic stimulation but no epileptic waveforms were noted. The next day he had a video EEG with him having 3 episodes that we had been calling seizures. Again the EEG did not show epileptic waveforms. After his seizures, my son would often experience weakness on one side of his body. These episodes have escalated to sometimes as many as 10+ a day, although on a rare day, he will have none. He was then diagnosed with alternating hemiplegia of childhood. He pediatric neurologist would like a second opinion from someone who has treated a
