Cervical dystonia (CD) often occurs in the same family.
A 40-year-old woman presented with a longstanding history of CD and signs of inconsistency at history taking and neurological examination; her 65-year-old mother was diagnosed instead with idiopathic CD, which had begun 7 years after the onset of CD in her daughter.
Idiopathic and functional CD share common clinical and endophenotypic traits, making the differential diagnosis particularly challenging. A complete examination is warranted.
颈部肌张力障碍(CD)常发生于同一家庭。
一名 40 岁女性患有长期 CD,且在病史询问和神经系统检查中存在不一致迹象;她 65 岁的母亲被诊断为特发性 CD,该病在女儿 CD 发病 7 年后开始。
特发性和功能性 CD 具有共同的临床和表型特征,使得鉴别诊断特别具有挑战性。需要进行全面检查。
