Description "OMS consists of involuntary saccades with myoclonus, cerebellar ataxia, and/or encephalopathy. Saccadic movements are termed opsoclonus when multidirectional and ocular flutter when in horizontal plane. OMS is thought to be caused by immunemediated injury to either pontine omnipause cells which inhibit gaze center burst neurons or cerebellar hemispheres which disinhibit the fastigial nucleus.Our goal is to discuss clinical features, diagnostic findings, and treatment of adult-onset opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome (OMS)."
