Brief Summary

Foot dystonia is frequently observed in patients suffering from Parkinson'disease. It is characterized by an abnormal involuntary movement which is very uncomfortable (difficult to walk) and painful for the patient. Botulinum toxin injections seem to be efficient to treat this dystonia. However studies on this topic are few and very imprecise (many muscle injected, especially the Flexor digitorum longus, different doses used, heterogeneous population with many types of dystonia included, open studies).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • In a controlled double blind and randomized study, we want to show that intramuscular injections of botulinum toxin are beneficial to reduced dystonia and associated pain in patient with foot dystonia (compared to placebo injections).

    one month after the injection of botulinum toxin/placebo

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficiency comparison of injections made in leg muscle (Flexor digitorum longus) between injections made directly in foot muscle (Flexor digitorum brevis or quadratus plantae) - Effects of injections on pain and quality of life.

    one month after injections of placebo or Botulinum toxin

Interventions

45 patients with an Idiopathic Parkinson's disease and a foot dystonia. Double blind, randomized study

Placebo injection

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age : 30-75 years
  • Patient with an idiopathic Parkinson's disease according to the criteria of the "Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank"
  • Patient with unilateral tiptoe dystonia. Dystonia must be present more than 1h /day and induce difficulties to walk (severity index ≥ 3 (1 : light, 2 : moderate, 3 : severe, 4 : very severe)).
  • Patients never treated with botulinum toxin or already treated for more than 6 months.
  • Affiliation to social security
  • Agreement of patients

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients suffering of an atypical Parkinson syndrome
  • Patient with a bilateral tiptoe dystonia
  • Patients with contraindication to the botulinum toxin use
  • Women without efficient contraception
  • Person who participate to an other study
