Abstract
A four-year-old girl with mirror movements, mainly of the distal parts of the upper extremities, in described. Physical, neurological and developmental evaluations were normal. Mirror movements, similar in distribution, were also seen in the older brother and two other family members. Mirror movements are relatively innocent but can cause emotional disturbances, as well as difficulties in fine motor coordination. Awareness of this unusual phenomenon may prevent unnecessary diagnostic studies.
