This volume provides valuable insights into hyperkinetic disorders related mainly to basal ganglia and pathology. It is divided into comprehensive chapters that encompass a broad and diverse group of diseases and syndromes that are characterized by abnormal, involuntary movements. Clinicians will find a plethora of information, including extensive discussions of choreoathtoid diseases like Huntington's. Additional chapters focus on topics including, but not limited to, spinocerebellar degenerations, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation, immune-related chorea, cancer-relate
