"This resource covers the signs, the pathophysiology, the genetics (where applicable),
and the treatment options of each form of hyperkinetic movement disorder. There is
a presentation of clinically-focused information regarding the full spectrum of neurological
and psychiatric conditions characterized by involuntary movements. With Parkinson's
disease as the most common hypokinetic movement disorder, this title expands on other
hyperkinetic movement disorders where substantial progress has been made in the understanding
of the role of the basal ganglia in the pathophysiology of these hyperkinesia disorders
and in motor control, muscle tone, posture, and cognitive processes. Although therapies
that target pathogenesis are still lacking, effective management of hyperkinetic movement
disorders demands that physicians are knowledgeable about current and novel pharmacological
and surgical approaches. Following background information about how to approach hyperkinetic
movement disorders and the neural circuitry underlying them, individual chapters cover
tremor, dystonia, Huntington's disease (and other choreas, athetosis, ballism), Tourette's
syndrome (and other tic disorders), habits, mannerisms, compulsions, stereotypies,
myoclonus, drug-induced disorders, Wilson's disease, hyperkinetic movement disorders
with a peripheral trigger and those of unclear origin, and psychogenic movement disorders.
It also includes sections on clinical phenomenology, etiology, and pathogenesis and
therapy"--Publisher's description
