AB  - Dystonia  is  characterized  by  involuntary  muscular  contractions  causing  twisting  movements  and  abnormal  postures.  As  described  in  the  previous  chapter,  dystonia  can  be  classified  into  primary  (dystonic  movements  and  postures  in  the  absence  of  other  motor  neurological  abnormalities,  with  the  exception  of  tremor)  and  secondary  forms  (environmental  causes  or  symptomatic;  dystonia  plus  syndromes  and  heredodegenerative  diseases).1  In  other  chapters  in  this  book,  childhood-onset  PTD  (Chapter  31)  and  the  symptomatic  dystonias  (Chapter  34)  are  covered  in  detail.
