Summary
 
A case of Parkinsonism associated with "Yawning-Seizure" was reported. In recent years, many reports stress the importance of Hyperventilation syndromes, owing to psychogenic factors.
 
Though there remains the possibility that a variety of psychogenic conflicts may precipitate the "Yawning-Seizure", it is suggested strongly that relationship with Parkinsonism may exsist. In other words, it seems that the mechanism is similar to that of "Buck Krampf".
 
A careful perusal of previous literature has revealed the lack of reports pertaining to the above facts and it is pointed out by the author as a matter of considerable significance.
