Definition
English
:
Parkinsonism following
encephalitis
, historically seen as a sequella of
encephalitis
lethargica (Von Economo
Encephalitis
). The early
age of onset
, the rapid progression of
symptoms
followed by
stabilization
, and the presence of a variety of other neurological disorders (e.g., sociopathic
behavior
;
TICS
; MUSCLE SPASMS; oculogyric crises;
hyperphagia
; and bizarre movements) distinguish this condition from primary
PARKINSON DISEASE
. Pathologic features include neuronal loss and
gliosis
concentrated in the
MESENCEPHALON
;
SUBTHALAMUS
; and
HYPOTHALAMUS
. (From Adams et al., Principles of
Neurology
, 6th ed, p754)
