The relationship between trauma and idiopathic torsion dystonia.

Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry - 1 Aug 1991

Fletcher N A, Harding A E, Marsden C D

Abstract excerpt

Generalised, multifocal or segmental idiopathic torsion dystonia (ITD), is caused by an autosomal dominant gene with reduced penetrance in about 85% of cases. Of 104 patients with these types of ITD, 17 (16.4%) gave a history which suggested that dystonic movements had been precipitated or exacerbated by trauma. Eight of these 17 patients had affected relatives. If precipitated, dystonia appeared first in the...
