The arms do not present tonic spasm such as is seen in adult may be a choreoid disorder of movement, spontaneous irregularmovements with inco-ordination, but in the cases that can fairly becalled spastic paraplegia the arm symptoms are slight. Whenconsiderable the condition is often termed double athetosis. Itscharacters are described in Vol. II. Transitional forms are met with which constitute gradations betweenprimary spastic paraplegia and other degenerations of the spinal inco-ordination may co-exist in cases approximating the ataxicparaplegia described in the next secti
