Background And Purpose: Developmental stuttering and Tourette syndrome (TS) are common neurodevelopmental disorders. Although disfluencies may co-occur in TS, their type and frequency do not always represent pure stuttering. Conversely, core symptoms of stuttering may be accompanied by physical concomitants (PCs) that can be confused for tics.

Palilalia is an acquired speech disorder characterized by the reiteration of words or sentences, historically divided in two main subtypes: "palilalie heterolalique" and "palilalie homolalique". In the former, the reiteration is characterized by rate increase and volume decrease, while in the latter these features remain unaltered. While the "heterolalique" subtype has been mainly observed in the context of basal ganglia diseases, the neuroanatomical basis of the "homolalique" subtype has never been completely clarified.

Latah is a culture-specific syndrome characterized by exaggerated startle response, echolalia, palilalia, echopraxia, coprolalia, forced obedience and involuntary vocalization in response to startle. Latah is stimulus-induced and is associated with behavior and psychiatric features. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive description on latah from a regional perspective based on previous literature and clinical experiences and highlight the clinical characteristics of latah from a movement disorders perspective.

Coprolalia and echophenomena repeated in the patients' mind (CTPh-cognitive tic-like phenomena) have been rarely recognized as part of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) symptomatology and their assignment to tics, OCD or other psychopathologies has not been settled. The aim of the paper was to assess the incidence and clinical associations of CTPh in GTS, and to establish if CTPh belong to the tic spectrum. We performed a prospective, one-registration study on a cohort of 227 consecutive patients with GTS.
