%X This is case report of a young adult male who had developed Parkinsonism symptoms shortly after severe head injury due to accidental fall. This 45-year-old man was diagnosed as multiple hemorrhagic contusions, sub arachnoid hemorrhage and linear skull fracture. After 4 weeks of fall, he developed Parkinsonian symptoms which were relieved by anti-parkinson¡¯s disease medication. After doing thorough journal review only few reports were found regarding short term onset of Parkinson¡¯s disease after severe head injury, though most of the literatures evident of the similar symptoms after more than years after the head trauma
