Abstract
Palatal tremor is a rare type of tremor. Although there are structural lesions and neurodegeneration in its etiology, it can also be seen functionally. Its diagnosis is made by oropharynx inspection in neurological examination, and prognosis and treatment management are directed by etiologic classification. We aimed to discuss functional palatal tremor in a 29-old male patient.
