title: Recognition and diagnosis of tardive dyskinesia.
abstract: The recognition of specific types of abnormal movements in patients receiving chronic neuroleptic therapy is discussed. Characteristics of the four major categories of such movements--tremor, chorea, tics, and dystonia--are listed. These abnormal movements can be seen in several other syndromes and disease processes, which are briefly reviewed.
