Dystonia is a hyperkinetic movement disorder characterized by sustained or intermittent muscle contractions that cause abnormal repetitive movements, abnormal postures, or both. The new consensus classifies dystonia into two axes to characterize clinical characteristics, and etiology.

Myoclonic dystonia is a rare disorder that occurs in an hereditary and a sporadic form. The autosomal-dominantly inherited form is responsive to alcohol but not to other drugs. The sporadic form has been relatively resistant to drug treatment. We report a young man with myoclonic dystonia who displayed only little response to alcohol but improved ...

Dystonias can be classified as primary or secondary, as dystonia-plus syndromes, and as heredodegenerative dystonias. Their prevalence is difficult to determine. In our experience 80-90% of all dystonias are primary. About 20-30% of those have a genetic background; 10-20% are secondary, with tardive dystonia and dystonia in cerebral palsy being the ...

Dystonia is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions, twisting movements, and abnormal postures in various body regions. It is widely accepted that the basal ganglia are involved in the pathogenesis of dystonia. A growing body of evidence, however, is challenging the traditional view and suggest that the cerebellum may ...

Oromandibular dystonia (OMD) is a rare neuromuscular disorder characterized by involuntary repetitive muscular contraction affecting different parts of the oromandibular region. Its various physical manifestations can be extremely debilitating and socially disabling to affected patients. To date, there is no commonly accepted set of diagnostic criteria

Understanding of the pathophysiology of dystonia derives primarily from studies of focal dystonias. Physiological investigations have revealed a number of abnormalities that may reflect the genetic substrate that predisposes certain individuals to develop dystonia.

Primary torsion dystonia (PTD) has a broad clinical spectrum, with earlier onset of symptoms associated with more generalized muscle involvement. The causes for most dystonia are unknown although several monogenic subtypes have been identified. One important genetic cause of PTD is DYT1; a three base pair deletion in this gene is a major cause for ...
