“…However, "striatal toe" tends to be fixed (not associated with movement) and persist even in sleep, unlike in our case. 23 The patient's neuroimaging lacked the classical picture of DS, i.e. reversible hyperintensity in contralateral striatum on T1-weighted imaging.…”

“…21,22 However, mostly PNKD is familial/genetic and starts in childhood and tends to be episodic, unlike in this case. The abnormal involuntary persistent choreodystonic movement involving the right great toe was initially misinterpreted to represent "striatal toe," 23 even more so because of the existing left caudate atrophy and chronic small-vessel changes over left striatum. However, "striatal toe" tends to be fixed (not associated with movement) and persist even in sleep, unlike in our case.…”

“…"Striatal toe sign" is an age-old terminology to indicate false-positive extensor toe sign in presence of dystonia affecting the leg muscles. 8 The great toe thus goes up due to the dystonic contraction of extensor hallucis longus muscle (Figure). The methodology and response obtained is the same as the one for extensor plantar response.…”

“…striatal hand, striatal toe) are also common PD symptoms [Winkler et al, 2002], [Jankovic, 2008]. About 23% of the PD patients participating in a study [Winkler et al, 2002] suffered from striatal toe (extension of the big toe), whereas according to [Kumar et al, 2013] extensor plantar response (i.e., striatal toe) affects 10% of PD patients. These conditions are called striatal because they are believed to be caused by dysfunction of the striatum, but their pathophysiology is unknown.…”
