Reihe: Neurological Disease and Therapy

As many as 250,000 people in the US have dystonia, making it the third most common movement disorder following essential tremor and Parkinson's disease.
This authoritative reader-friendly resource provides a wide-ranging overview of the latest research and developments regarding the pathogenesis, evaluation, and management of the disease. Offering detailed coverage of every available treatment option for dystonia, including four categorized sections on medical management, botulinum toxin injections, phenol or neurolytic therapy, and surgical intervention.
This source summarizes what is known about the disorder and dramatically improves the recognition and understanding of this debilitating disease. The most important update to the second edition is the addition of four new chapters dedicated to the discussion of individual botulinum toxins recently approved to treat dystonia: Botox, Myobloc, Disport, and Xeomin. Other new chapters include a discussion of rapid-onset dystonia-Parkinson’s, dystonic symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disorders, the use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) as a treatment option for dystonia, as well as a chapter dedicated to spasticity, its pathogenesis, evaluation, and treatment with toxins, other injectables or surgical therapies.

Handbook of Dystonia, Second Edition, will again be edited by Mark A. Stacy, whose reputation in the industry as an expert in this movement disorder has only grown since he developed the very successful first edition. Dr. Stacy, now a professor of neurology at Duke University, has attracted a team of internationally-recognised movement disorder specialists to write the first edition of the book. These experts have returned to update their chapters, and new treatment specialists have been recruited to write the new botulinum toxin chapters.
