We report the results of iron chelating treatment with deferiprone in
a 61-year-old woman with signs and symptoms of neurodegeneration with
brain iron accumulation (NBIA). After 6 months of therapy the
patient's gait had improved and a reduction in the incidence of
choreic dyskinesias was observed. Her gait returned to normal after an
additional 2 months of therapy, at which time there was a further
reduction in involuntary movements and a partial resolution of the
blepharospasm. (c) 2008 Movement Disorder Society.
