Abstract:
:This article reviews recent studies evaluating the clinicopathologic markers of progressive supranuclear palsy, which have helped establish standardized clinical and pathologic diagnostic criteria. Although these criteria increase diagnostic accuracy, the clinical and pathologic overlap between progressive supranuclear palsy and other disorders remains. Factors that may contribute toward managing progressive supranuclear palsy patients better are discussed and the etiopathogenicity of the disorder is hypothesized.
