Abstract

In this chapter, the authors will provide an overview of movement disorders. It will begin with a review of nomenclature used to describe movement disorders, followed by a discussion of the basal ganglia circuitry. Neurosurgical treatment options for individual movement disorder syndromes will then be addressed.
