Summary
String hallucination, a complex multimodal sensory experience, can occur in advanced Parkinson disease (PD). Quetiapine demonstrated effectiveness in managing this unusual symptom in two patients with PD and dementia.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Psychiatry
Background:
- Advanced Parkinson disease (PD) can present with complex neuropsychiatric symptoms.
- Hallucinations are a known complication, but specific types like string hallucination are less commonly detailed.

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Parkinson's Disease: Overview
342
Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is...

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), involve the gradual and irreversible destruction of neurons in particular brain areas. These disorders exhibit standard features like proteinopathies, selective vulnerability of some neurons, and an interaction of intrinsic properties, genetics, and environmental influences in neural injury.
