Dysphagia, 2005
A patient is described with some dystonic features related to the preswallowing period of oropharyngeal swallowing in the muscles of deglutition sequentially. This case may be called a "preswallowing dystonia."

This article provides a summary of the state of the art in the diagnosis, classification, etiologies, and treatment of dystonia.Although many different clinical manifestations of dystonia have been recognized for decades, it is only in the past 5 years that a broadly accepted approach has emerged for classifying them into specific subgroups.

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2006
Adult-onset focal dystonia in the upper limbs is well characterized whereas such dystonia has been rarely reported in the lower limbs, especially in proximal parts. When such focal dystonia occurs in an athlete it is often wrongly attributed to an orthopedic disorder. We present five cases, three female and two male with mean age of 44.6+/-10.43 years,

Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 1997
Dystonia is defined as a syndrome of sustained muscle contractions, frequently causing twisting and repetitive movements, or abnormal postures. Tardive dyskinesia (TD), estimated to occur in 30% of patients treated with neuroleptics, encompasses a broad spectrum of hyperkinesias associated with exposure to these drugs.

Neurology, 1985
Lisuride hydrogen maleate, 0.4 to 5 (mean, 3) mg/d, was given orally to 42 subjects with various types of dystonia. In seven of the eight patients who improved (one with segmental dystonia, one with myoclonic dystonia, two with spasmodic torticollis, two with cranial dystonia, and two with tardive dystonia), the response was confirmed by double-blind ...

Dystonia is characterized by muscle contractions leading to abnormal postures with involuntary twisting and repetitive movements. Inherited dystonia designated by DYT locus symbols can be separated into three broad phenotypic categories: primary torsion dystonia (PTD), where dystonia is the only clinical sign (except for tremor) (DYT1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 13 ...

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2003
Dystonia is a movement disorder with a complex and not fully understood pathophysiology. Its better understanding would enable more focused treatment for the disorder. In this review, we provide an overview of recent studies of the pathophysiology of primary and secondary dystonia, with an emphasis on functional brain imaging.

Seminars in Neurology, 2007
During the last decade, we have witnessed significant advances in the study of inherited dystonias. This article will review some of those discoveries and summarize their significance for the practicing neurologist. A clinical classification of dystonia based on features that can be determined by the clinician is proposed, aiming to facilitate the ...

Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics, 2006
Dystonia may be a sign or symptom, that is comprised of complex abnormal and dynamic movements of different etiologies. A specific cause is identified in approximately 28% of patients, which only occasionally results in specific treatment. In most cases, treatment is symptomatic and designed to relieve involuntary movements, improve posture and ...
