Huntington's Disease
Huntington Disease is a genetic disorder affecting movements, behaviors and reminiscence, typically starting at the age of 30-50. Nerve Cells are degenerated gradually in Huntington's disease. Patients with involuntary movements apply most of the time. If either of the parents has genetic abnormality, the possibility of becoming ill is %50. It is believe that there are much more Huntington patients than estimated in our country. Patients and patient relatives are followed in our polyclinic. Genetic tests are performed after genetic counselling. A multidisciplinary approach is applied to our patients with our psychiatrists.
