Resumen

Se realizó una revisión de las publicaciones sobre la enfermedad de Huntington, incluidas las manifestaciones neurológicas clínicas, los avances recientes en los aspectos fisiopatológicos y los mecanismos genéticos y los trastornos psicopatológicos. Se puede concluir que la investigación sobre esto último es escasa, aunque la materia es pertinente a causa de la coincidencia de fenómenos psiquiátricos, neurológicos y genéticos, lo que puede llevar a conceptos nuevos en la comprensión de la función cerebral. Hasta ahora, los intentos de proporcionar una descriptión amplia y pragmática de los trastornos psicopatológicos de la enfermedad de Huntington han sido decepcionantes, debido probablemente a las limitaciones del sistema de clasificación del DSM en este trastorno. La investigación futura debe centrarse no sólo en este sistema de clasificación, sino también en el funcionamiento neuropsicológico, a causa de la naturaleza degenerativa de la enfermedad. Se deben realizar estudios sistematicos y controlados sobre el tratamiento de las anomalías psiquiátricas en la enfermedad de Huntington antes de que se pueda extraer alguna conclusión.
