Parkinsonism and Belly Dancer Syndrome in a Patient with Schizophrenia

Background: Belly dancer syndrome (BDS) and parkinsonian features are rarely described in association as a drug-induced movement disorder.

Phenomenology shown: A 62-year-old woman with paranoid schizophrenia presented with bradykinesia, rigidity, rest, and postural tremor, as well as dyskinetic abdominal movements.

Educational value: Our case highlights that drug-induced parkinsonism can be associated with other rare movement disorders, such as BDS, with subsequent greater morbidity.
