MOVEMENT DISORDER IN PERIPHERAL NERVE INJURIES
H. Hooshmand, M.D. and Eric M. Phillips
Neurological Associates Pain Management Center
Vero Beach, FL
Abstract. The conventional wisdom and
classical description of movement disorders point to the central nervous
system (CNS) as the originator of movement disorder, it is becoming
obviously that peripheral nerve injuries can also initiate and contribute
to movement disorders. Even though such conditions are exceptional and
rare as compared to the CNS movement disorder, there is evidence that the
peripheral nervous system (PNS) can also contribute to movement disorder.
Descriptors. central nervous system (CNS), complex regional
pain syndrome (CRPS I and CRPS II), movement disorder, myoclonic jerks,
Parkinson Disease (PD), reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), tremor. |
