A 6-month trial of memantine for nystagmus and associated phenomena in oculopalatal tremor
IntroductionOculopalatal tremor (OPT) is a late manifestation of a Guillain-Mollaret triangle lesion. Memantine has been shown to improve nystagmus in OPT, but its long-term efficacy and putative distinct effects on each plane of nystagmus and on ...

Palatal tremor after lithium and carbamazepine use: a case report
Introduction Palatal tremor, characterized by rhythmic contractions of the soft palate, can occur secondary to pathology in the dentato-rubro-olivary pathway, or in the absence of such structural lesions. Its pathogenesis is only partially understood. We

The Dentato-Rubro-Olivary Tract: Clinical Dimension of This Anatomical Pathway
Symptomatic palatal tremor is potentially the result of a lesion in the triangle of Guillain-Mollaret (1931) and is associated with hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) which has characteristic MR findings. The triangle is defined by dentate efferents

Hypertrophic olivary degeneration associated with bilateral vocal cord adductor dystonia
Background Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a rare condition caused by lesions within the dentato-rubro-olivary pathway, resulting in ocular nystagmus and palatal myoclonus (oculopalatal tremor) but not usually dystonia. Dystonia is an uncommon

Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration Secondary to Head Trauma
Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a rare form of transsynaptic degeneration and is the only type which occurs with hypertrophy rather than atrophy. It develops due to pathologies affecting conduction in the dentato-rubro-olivary pathway. Despite
