Pathology of tremor

  • Chapter
Book cover Movement Disorders: Tremor

Abstract

Tremor is a dynamic state involving contraction and relaxation of muscles around a joint. It leaves no specific marker in the brain after death and there is as yet no ‘pathology’. In some conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease, the tremor is generated by structural alterations within the central nervous system; in others, such as enhanced physiological and essential tremors, such structural alterations have not been recognised. Since, as Oppenheimer (1976) states, in so-called extrapyramidal diseases ‘it is still not possible to account for individual symptoms such as tremor, rigidity or athetosis in terms of normal or abnormal function of a particular nucleus’, it is not possible to assess any particular structural lesion seen in the brain in terms of the contribution it made to the presence of the tremor.
