Radiation‐induced tongue myokymia with hypoglossal nerve damage, mimicker of motor neuron disease

This teaching case of tongue myokymia offers clear electromyographic findings of myokymic discharges on two different sweeps. Radiation‐induced tongue myokymia should be considered in the differential diagnosis for motor neuron disease (MND).
