It is common for patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease to develop levodopa‐induced dyskinesia. This report provides what we believe is the first videotape presentation of levodopa‐induced dyskinesia in a patient with progressive supranuclear palsy. To our knowledge, there is only one previous report of an autopsy‐proven case of this kind. © 2002 Movement Disorder Society
