Gait disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2001
This chapter deals with the neuronal mechanisms underlying impaired gait. The aim is, first, a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and, second, the selection of an adequate treatment. One of the first symptoms of a lesion within the central motor system perceived by patients is a movement disorder, which is most characteristic during
