Abstract
This review is designed to provide practical help for the clinical neurologist to make appropriate use of the possibilities of molecular diagnosis of inherited movement disorders. Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease and parkinsonian syndromes, ataxias, Wilson disease, essential tremor, dystonias, and other genetic diseases associated with a variety of movement disorders are considered separately.Keywords
