Psychogenic Movement Disorders
Neurologic Clinics, 2015Psychogenic movement disorders (PMDs) can present with varied phenomenology that may resemble organic movement disorders. The diagnosis is based on clinical evaluation with a supporting history and classic features on neurologic examination. Ancillary testing, such as imaging and neurophysiologic studies, can provide supplementary information but is ...

Psychogenic movement disorders
Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2012Psychogenic movement disorders are common, but the diagnosis may be difficult. Visual appearance alone is typically not sufficient to make a diagnosis, but such information is certainly important. That a movement is bizarre can be helpful, but still must be considered thoughtfully since organic movement disorders can have endless variety. The diagnosis

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2013
The aim is to review sleep disturbances in different movement disorders, mainly Parkinson's disease, and highlight current concepts on merging the boundaries between movement disorders and dissociative states of being.Since the observation that rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) may be an early marker of neurodegeneration, many studies ...

Hypokinetic Movement Disorders
Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 2000Hypokinesis is the term used to refer to slow or reduced movement. Hypokinetic movement disorders are often referred to as parkinsonisms because they display clinical features of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). As a result, distinguishing other parkinsonian syndromes from IPD is difficult, and it is often not until post mortem that a misdiagnosis

SURGERY FOR MOVEMENT DISORDERS
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2002Since Laitinen's report of pallidotomy for the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease less than a decade ago, there has been a resurgence of interest in functional neurosurgery for movement disorders. The convergence of several paths, including the clinical problem of levodopa induced dyskinesias and motor fluctuations, increased understanding of ...

Movement disorders in pregnancy
Neurologic Clinics, 2004Movement disorders are not particularly common during pregnancy, with a few exceptions. RLS occurs most commonly followed by CG. Currently, with the incidence of rheumatic fever lower than previously, any woman who develops CG should be checked for illness other than rheumatic heart disease.

Neurophysiology of Movement Disorders
1977The relation of the cortex, cerebellum, and basal ganglia and their participation in movement disorders is presented. Studies have shown that lesions to the cortex will produce contralateral paralysis while damage to the basal ganglia or cerebellum will result in movement abnormalities.

Classification of Movement Disorders
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2010Classification of diseases aids understanding and activity by creating an overview. No single classification can serve all purposes, and it is helpful to be aware of the range of methods available and to understand what they set out to achieve. This article focuses on factors that help the interaction between clinicians and radiologists, with the aim ...

Journal of Neurology, 2008
Movement disorder emergencies include any movement disorder which evolves over hours to days, in which failure to appropriately diagnose and manage can result in patient morbidity or mortality. It is crucial that doctors recognize these emergencies with accuracy and speed by obtaining the proper history and by being familiar with the phenomenology of ...

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, 2008
This article reviews three poorly recognized yet relatively common presentations of hyperactive orofacial movement disorders: oromandibular dystonia, orofacial dyskinesia, and drug-induced extrapyramidal syndrome reactions. Orofacial movement disorders are often misdiagnosed as temporomandibular disorders, hence understanding these conditions is ...
