SYNOPSIS A 22‐year‐old woman developed complete left hemiplegia and sensory loss during an attack of migraine. She recovered almost totally but two months later incoordination and twisting of the left limb was noticeable. Examination showed tremor of the left arm and dystonia of the hand and foot secondary to a small infarction of the right posterolateral thalamic nuclei. Late onset dystonia may be another sequela of complicated migraine.
