St. Vitus Dance, also known as Sydenham's chorea, is a neurological disorder characterized by rapid, unintentional movements, particularly of the face and limbs. It often occurs in children and is associated with infections, particularly rheumatic fever, which can follow a streptococcal throat infection. The condition is named after Saint Vitus, the patron saint of dancers, as the symptoms resemble dancing movements. The disorder is typically self-limiting, meaning it often resolves on its own over time. Treatment may include medications to manage symptoms and reduce inflammation. While St. Vitus Dance can be distressing, most individuals recover fully without long-term effects.
