Abstract：
:Alternating hemiplegia in childhood (AHC) has clinically characteristic features which are easily defined and recognizable. Laboratory investigations were basically normal although they were extensively examined during and between attacks. There is still much debate about its etiology, particularly its relation to migraine or epilepsy. Clinical characteristics of identified 23 AHC in Japanese were presented, which were obtained from a large Japanese cooperative study in 1988. AHC may prove not to be as rare as has been thought.
