Article Synopsis
- Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder causing parkinsonism, impaired vertical gaze, and frequent falls due to brain degeneration.
- A 79-year-old man's PSP was diagnosed after he fell, leading to a traumatic hemopneumothorax, with neurological tests revealing signs consistent with PSP.
- Early diagnosis is critical to improve quality of life and prevent severe falls, emphasizing the need for thorough neurological evaluations and MRIs in elderly patients with recurrent falls.

Atypical Parkinsonian syndromes are a subset of progressive neurodegenerative disorders that present with signs of Parkinson's disease. However, due to multisystem degeneration, the atypical Parkinsonian syndromes have additional symptoms that are often referred to as Parkinson-plus syndromes. The most well-studied subsets include progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), multiple system atrophy (MSA), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and Lewy body dementia.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify and describe uncommon manifestations in patients with atypical parkinsonian syndromes by analyzing medical records over more than a decade.
- A total of 46 patients with atypical symptoms were analyzed, with diagnoses including multiple system atrophy, dementia with Lewy bodies, frontotemporal dementia, corticobasal syndrome, and progressive supranuclear palsy.
- Results indicated similar prevalence of atypical findings across the different syndromes, highlighting features like myoclonus, double vision, and abnormal MRI signs, suggesting some cases may have genetic implications.

Background: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a clinically heterogenous atypical parkinsonian syndrome. Therefore, early recognition and correct diagnosis of PSP is challenging but essential. This study aims to characterize the clinical manifestations, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and longitudinal MRI changes of PSP in China.
