title: A case report of exhibitionist behaviour revealing unsuspected Huntington's disease: a pitfall in forensic medicine.
abstract: We present the case of a patient who was recently convicted for exhibitionism whose clinical assessment suggested undiagnosed Huntington's disease. We summarise the clinical characteristics, the genetics involved and the diagnostic difficulties which can be encountered. Finally, we discuss the implications of this diagnosis in forensic medicine.
