Dystonia is a disorder of involuntary sustained muscle contractions. It is commonly classified by age of onset, distribution of involved body regions, and etiology. The pathophysiolgy of this condition is complex and imperfectly understood. This article reviews the epidemiology, genetics, clinical features, and approach to diagnosis and treatment of ...

Therapy for most people with dystonia is symptomatic, directed at lessening the intensity of the dystonic contractions. For a small minority of patients (eg, those with dopa-responsive dystonia, Wilson's disease, or psychogenic dystonia), specific therapy directed at one of the many causes of dystonia is available.

Brain Structural Changes in Focal Dystonia—What About Task Specificity? A Multimodal MRI Study
Movement Disorders, 2020The neural basis of task specificity in dystonia is still poorly understood. This study investigated gray and white matter (WM) brain alterations in patients with task‐specific dystonia (TSD) and non‐task‐specific dystonia (NTSD).

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 discusses the most recent findings regarding the diagnosis, classification, and management of genetic and idiopathic dystonia.A new approach to classifying dystonia has been created with the aim to increase the recognition and diagnosis of dystonia. Molecular biology and genetic studies have identified several genes and biological pathways

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1998
Many different disorders have dystonia as the only or primary sign. The list of causes for dystonia increases yearly and now includes three mapped loci for primary torsion dystonia, although other susceptibility genes are suspected. Study of one of these primary torsion dystonia loci (DYT1) has culminated in the cloning of a gene which codes for a ...

The Anatomical Basis for Dystonia: The Motor Network Model
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2017Background The dystonias include a clinically and etiologically very diverse group of disorders. There are both degenerative and non-degenerative subtypes resulting from genetic or acquired causes.

We review the experimental evidence from genetic and neurophysiological studies on idiopathic and secondary torsion dystonias. We also discuss the treatment of dystonia by botulinum toxin injections and surgical therapy.

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.
