Multiple sclerosis is an uncommon disease in childhood and adolescence and is rarely associated with movement disorders other than tremor. The differential diagnosis is difficult to establish when, particularly, movement disorder presents as the initial manifestation of multiple sclerosis. Video-electroencephalography monitoring is the gold-standard method for the differential diagnosis of epileptic and paroxysmal nonepileptic events, including movement disorders and psychogenic seizures. This article presents a patient with paroxysmal dystonia secondary to multiple sclerosis who previously was diagnosed and treated as having conversion disorder and epilepsy. The utility of video-electroencephalography monitoring during the process of differential diagnosis is discussed.

Hemiplegic migraine is a rare and complex disease, characterized by migraine with a reversible motor aura. Hemiplegic migraine can be easily misdiagnosed at its first presentation with an atypical severe form of migraine, a stroke, multiple sclerosis, metabolic disorders, conversion disorder or an epilepsy. We present the case of a young 24-year-old male patient, who since the age of 4 years had been having multiple episodes of migraine associated with hemiparesis, paraesthesia, prolonged somnolence, aphasia and confusion. We review the literature and discuss important diagnostic findings in hemiplegic migraine to help establishing a prompt diagnosis.
