Abstract
Abstract Movement Disorders in Psychiatry examines the complex interface between movement disorders and psychiatry, addressing both specific movement disorders in psychiatry, and behavioral syndromes associated with diseases categorized as movement disorders. After an overview of the clinical definitions and pathophysiology of movement disorders in Part 1, Part 2 reviews a series of movement disorders associated with drugs of abuse and psychotropic medications, including tardive dyskinesia, akathisia, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Part 3 discusses movement disorders seen in primary psychiatric disorders such as autism and schizophrenia. Finally, Part 4 examines diseases with concurrent movement disorder and behavioral symptoms, including Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, Tourette’s syndrome, and autoimmune conditions. The book provides an in-depth and up-to-date perspective of the field, also discussing the challenges in the clinical practice.
