PY - 2018 DA - 2018/04/06 TI - Crossing barriers: a multidisciplinary approach to children and adults with young-onset movement disorders JO - Journal of Clinical Movement Disorders SP - 3 VL - 5 IS - 1 AB - Diagnosis of less common young-onset movement disorders is often challenging, requiring a broad spectrum of skills of clinicians regarding phenotyping, normal and abnormal development and the wide range of possible acquired and genetic etiologies. This complexity often leads to considerable diagnostic delays, paralleled by uncertainty for patients and their families. Therefore, we hypothesized that these patients might benefit from a multidisciplinary approach. We report on the first 100 young-onset movement disorders patients who visited our multidisciplinary outpatient clinic.
