Abstract

Available familial, neurophysiologic and imaging evidence suggests that primary adult-onset focal dystonia has a combined genetic and environmental aetiological basis. We report an Indian family which presented writer’s cramp in two generations involving three individuals. No such family from India has yet been reported.
