Parkinsonism-hyperpyrexia syndrome (PHS) is a rare, potentially fatal neurological emergency, that is seen in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients and mimics neuroleptic malignant syndrome. The most common trigger for PHS is sudden withdrawal of anti-parkinsonian medications, specifically levodopa. However, it can also be due to Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) device malfunction. In this work, we describe three cases of PHS; the first of which is related to DBS battery depletion, and the remaining two to dopaminergic withdrawal. Additionally, we will include the results of a literature review on PHS, its etiologies, presentation, and management.
