Resumen
RODRIGUEZ PUPO, Jorge Michel et al. Update on Huntington Disease. CCM [online]. 2013, vol.17, suppl.1, pp. 546-557. ISSN 1560-4381.
Huntington Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. Selective neuronal loss in the striatum leads to chorea and cognitive impairment. It is a progressive disease with onset in midlife, which chronically evolves over many years and for which no curative treatment is available today. A review on the current knowledge of Huntington Disease was carried out. Etiopathogenic, clinical, diagnostic methods and treatment options were included.
