This review covers Tourette's syndrome (TS), detailing its symptoms like motor and vocal tics, and associated conditions. Emerging research confirms TS is an organic neurological disorder, guiding current treatment approaches.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Genetics
  • Psychiatry

Context:

  • Tourette's syndrome (TS) is a complex neurological disorder.
  • Characterized by motor and vocal tics, often accompanied by ADHD and OCD.
  • Understanding the organic basis of TS is crucial for effective management.

Purpose:

  • To consolidate current knowledge on Tourette's syndrome.
  • To review the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, and genetics of TS.
  • To outline evidence-based treatment strategies.

Summary:

  • TS presents with diverse motor and vocal tics, alongside behavioral comorbidities like ADHD and OCD.
  • Recent pathophysiological and genetic findings support the organic nature of Tourette's syndrome.
  • Treatment plans are tailored to the predominant symptoms observed in individuals with TS.
