Restless legs syndrome is common in patients with multiple sclerosis but has not been reported as occurring due to an acute, inflammatory, demyelinating attack. Restless legs syndrome is known to be related to low brain iron levels. Multiple sclerosis has been associated with the abnormal accumulation of iron in the chronic, progressive phase of axonal degeneration. Iron deficiency may play a role in demyelination. This suggests that restless legs syndrome may be caused by the inflammatory, demyelinating component of multiple sclerosis rather than axonal degeneration. The author presents a case of self-limited restless legs syndrome occurring as an acute attack of multiple sclerosis, supporting the notion that inflammatory demyelination is the underlying pathophysiology of restless legs syndrome in multiple sclerosis.

This chapter deals with classic Parkinson’s disease and the main variants such as progressive supranuclear palsy, multiple system atrophy, and the corticobasal syndrome. There are details on chorea, particularly Huntington’s disease, chorea-acanthocytosis, McLeod’s syndrome, Sydenham’s chorea, Wilson’s disease. The main varieties of tremor are described as are neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation. Subsequent parts deal with tics, restless legs syndrome, periodic movements of sleep, and painful legs and moving toes. Several Handles are specified for dystonia and its subdivisions, Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, gait disorders, paroxysmal dyskinesias, stereotypies, psychogenic movement disorders, and myoclonus.
