Abstract

Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare form of adult-onset α-synucleinopathy. Meige syndrome, identified as bilateral blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia, is a type of focal dystonic movement disorder. This case report aims to highlight the clinical features of multiple system atrophy associated with Meige syndrome in a patient. Additionally, we aim to provide the treatment experience in a patient with Meige syndrome as this is an extremely rare clinical case.
