Abstract:
Morvan’s syndrome is a rare form of neuromyotonia having prominent central symptoms. We present
a series of 9 patients who developed Morvan’s syndrome after scrotal tap and local instillation of
lignocaine and denatured spirit into scrotal sac to treat hydrocoele. The course of the disease was
self-limiting. All patients improved within 3 months of onset of symptoms.
