Surgical treatment of dystonia
Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics, 2018Introduction: Treatment of dystonia should be individualized and tailored to the specific needs of patients. Surgical treatment is an important option in medically refractory cases. Several issues regarding type of the surgical intervention, targets, and

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 ...

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.

Tardive dyskinesia is a movement disorder that develops after exposure to dopamine receptor blocking agents. Less well-appreciated are other, more recently described tardive syndromes that are phenomenologically distinct from tardive dyskinesia and respond to different treatments. Patients may simultaneously have more than one tardive syndrome.

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 ...
