“…Balser produced a textually annotated collection of teaching films, Neurological Cinematographic Atlas , which were made available to medical institutions for teaching purposes. In addition to the films, Goodhart and Balser published in 1944 a short textbook of the same name that provided some additional information on the patients and their images 10. Editing of the films was funded by a grant from the National Science Fund of the National Academy of Medicine and the films were made in association with the Committee on Medical Motion Pictures of the American College of Surgeons.…”

Encephalitis lethargica (EL; epidemic encephalitis; von Economo's disease) often presented with a movement disorder, and the motor consequences of postencephalitic parkinsonism (PEP) were characteristic of the chronic sequelae of this condition. PEP was similar to Parkinson's disease but was more variable and had some distinct features such as oculogyric crises. Although two previous publications have included video images of the movement disorders associated with EL and PEP, the sequences presented were typically short, showed only a few patients, and did not include the work of several neurologists who had the foresight to preserve filmed images of their patients. We describe the most complete record of EL and PEP moving images that have been preserved and make them available in edited form.
