Sydenham’s Chorea and Psychosis
Neuropsychobiology, 1986The medical histories of 600 psychotic and 369 nonpsychotic subjects were examined for the occurrence of rheumatic chorea. There was significantly more rheumatic chorea in the histories of psychotic patients than in nonpsychotics (p less than 0.01, chi-square). Neuropathological associations are discussed.

Electroencephalogram in Sydenham's Chorea
Archives of Neurology, 1964"Chorea St. Viti" was described by Sydenham 1 in 1685, but its pathogenesis is not yet completely understood. The disease occurs as a manifestation of rheumatic fever; but in some cases this association cannot be demonstrated, and evidence of an antecedent streptococcal infection is not invariable.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2003
Sydenham chorea is an important cause of acquired chorea in childhood. Although the symptoms of chorea frequently resolve spontaneously in a matter of months, abnormal movements can be debilitating when they are present. Neuropsychologic symptoms may antedate the motor abnormality, may be persistent, and often are of great concern.

Sydenham’s Chorea and Psychopathology
Neuropsychobiology, 1988Sydenham's chorea is a movement disorder seen in rheumatic fever with basal ganglia pathology. This disorder has been associated with an increased frequency of psychopathology in both the acute choreiform stage and later in life. We conducted a prospective study of 29 subjects with Sydenham's chorea and 29 age- and sex-matched controls.
