Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Belly dancer dyskinesia (BDD) is an involuntary waving and writhing type of abdominal wall movement, which resemble those of a belly dancer. Worldwide only four cases of belly dancer dyskinesia during pregnancy were reported. In two of the reported cases, it has recurred in the succeeding pregnancy while the remaining one did not mention about the recurrence. I am reporting a 25 year old primigravida woman with gestational age of 25 weeks plus 6 days presented with involuntary, rhythmic and painful abdominal movement of three weeks duration and diagnosed as belly dancer dyskinesia after investigations. The abnormal body movement disappeared after delivery and did not recur in the second pregnancy. CONCLUSION: “Belly Dancer Dyskinesia” during pregnancy is a very rare type of disease with unknown etiology and a little known effective treatment against it. |
