Dystonia-Parkinsonism: The overlap

Raymond L Rosales

University of Santo Tomas, Philippines

everal movement disorders overlap with one another as part of the course of the syndrome or illness. The discourse attempts

to help the clinician explore disorders with such overlap of dystonia and Parkinsonism and offer a way to enumerate clinical

features in the context of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and its therapy-related disorders. In the field of dystonia, the overlap is

recognized in the classification of heredo-degenerative dystonia–Parkinsonism syndromes. The hereditary dystonia-plus

(Parkinsonism) syndromes (with a special account on ‘lubag’), neurochemical disorders and other characterized movement

disorders in a mix with dystonia–parkinsonism will also be included in the discourse.
