Primary Cueing Tremor: A Task-Specific Tremor of Billiard Players

Our cases expand the phenomenology of task-specific movement disorders in billiards players to include tremor. Alcohol responsiveness and electrophysiologic findings suggest a variant of essential tremor. Recognizing primary cueing tremor may have implications for treatment, natural history, and pathophysiology, which likely differ from those of billiards-related dystonia.

Abstract

Our cases expand the phenomenology of task-specific movement disorders in billiards players to include tremor. Alcohol responsiveness and electrophysiologic findings suggest a variant of essential tremor. Recognizing primary cueing tremor may have implications for treatment, natural history, and pathophysiology, which likely differ from those of billiards-related dystonia.
