title: [The classification of autonomic disorders].
abstract: This is the first presentation of a new nosologic classification of autonomic disorders based upon their division according to the principle of their segmental vs. suprasegmental origin. Three classes are presented: cerebral and peripheral autonomic disorders, which are subdivided into primary and secondary, and combined autonomic disorders. If any form existed as a separate disease or a syndrome in a primary disease, it is reflected in relevant parts of the classification. Its creation seems expedient from the viewpoint of developing the adequate principles in therapy of autonomic disorders. Above all, this is the treatment of the major disease causing suprasegmental of segmental autonomic disorders.
