Overview

Atypical parkinsonian syndromes include a diverse range of phenotypes characterized by the presence of the parkinsonian syndrome with variable accentuation of the different symptoms, motor, cognitive and behavioural, and with very variable course. Classification of these diseases is rapidly evolving, mainly owing to molecular genetics and clinical-pathological correlation.

Key words:
parkinsonian syndromes – genetics – frontotemporal dementia – multiple system atrophy – Lewy body disease – Parkinson´s disease – dementia – Perry syndrome – autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia – atypical parkinsonian syndromes

The authors declare they have no potential conflicts of interest concerning drugs, products, or services used in the study.

The Editorial Board declares that the manuscript met the ICMJE “uniform requirements” for biomedical papers.
