DYSTONIA What is the most important symptom?
what you see? SEVERE DYSTONIC POSTURE REVIEW THE PICTURE
Dystonia is a syndrome of sustained muscle contractions, frequently causing twisting and repetitive movements or abnormal postures WHAT IS DYSTONIA?
One question! Primary or secondary dystonia? In primary dystonia, cognition and intellectual abilities remain intact despite the presence of significant movement abnormalities notice! consanguity Approach to dystonia
in early onset primary dystonia, spread from one leg to other body areas, including the other leg, torso, arms, and upper body Early or late onset?
perinatal asphyxia , kernicterus, generalized primary dystonia, drugs, Wilson disease (hepatolenticular degeneration), Haller-vorden-Spatz disease, and numerous other genetic mutations. extrapyramidal cerebral palsy who have had basal ganglia injury from asphyxia metabolic disorders such as glutaricaciduria. What the cause of dystonia?
Sympatomimetics Carbamazepine Phenytoin Antipsycotics ets Drugs
Normal laboratory test No hepatic involvment Wilson disease
Other names: torsion dystonia dystoniamusculorumdeformans (DMD) Generalized primary dystonia
mutation in the DYT1 gene coding ATP binding protein Torsin A Generalized primary dystonia
limb onset progression to generalized dystonia
Dopamin responsive dystonia Other names: Hereditary progressive dystonia with marked diurnal variation Hallmark: diurnal variation, trial of Levodopa Autosomalressesive Segawa disease DRD
Neuropathology excessive accumulation of iron-containing pigments in the globuspallidus and substantianigra Hallervorden-Spatz
AUTOSOMAL RESSESIVE pantothenatekinase–associated neurodegeneration. progressive dystonia, rigidity, and choreoathetosis. Spasticity, extensor plantar responses, dysarthria, and intellectual deterioration become evident during adolescence, and death usually occurs by early adulthood HALLERVORDEN SPATZ
MRI shows lesions of the globuspallidus, including low signal intensity in T2 weighted images (corresponds to iron pigments) and an anteromedial area of high signal intensity (tissue necrosis and edema), or “ eye-of-the-tiger” sign Hallervorden-Spatz
its hereditary AND Primary disorder Dystonia is prominant Major DDx: DMD or Hallervordenspatz conclusion
