AI Article Synopsis
- - Movement disorders are often caused by problems with the basal ganglia (BG), cerebellum, or both, which play key roles in motor control and learning.
- - The basal ganglia consist of deep brain structures that form complex circuits influencing motor and limbic functions.
- - The article reviews the anatomy and function of the BG and cerebellum and discusses clinical syndromes linked to their dysfunction or injury.
Article Abstract
Movement disorders typically arise from dysfunction of the basal ganglia (BG), cerebellum, or both. The BG-a group of deep, subcortical structures-form complex circuits that shape motor control and motor learning, as well as limbic and associative functions. In this article, we summarize the anatomy and physiology of the BG and cerebellum, and briefly highlight the clinical syndromes that may arise in the context of their injury or dysfunction.
