ABSTRACT
Two patients of uncommon neurological presentation due to non-ketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) are being described in this report. Generalized choreo-athetosis and epilepsia partialis continua as presenting symptoms in non-ketotic hyperglycemia is rare. The abnormal movements responded completely to insulin therapy. In acute onset of abnormal movements, besides other causes, metabolic disorders such as non-ketotic hyperglycemia should also be ruled out as they are treatable.
