title: A multidisciplinary approach to the management of Huntington's disease.
abstract: Huntington's disease is an incurable, progressive, inherited neurological disorder resulting in involuntary choreic movements, dementia and behavorial changes. The Donald J. Allen Memorial Huntington's Disease Clinic is a free-standing multidisciplinary clinic in the midwest specifically devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of HD. In its first eighteen months of operation, the clinic staff examined 38 patients. Approximately 30% of those patients did not have HD or were originally misdiagnosed.
