Definition

Huntington's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the gradual onset of motor dysfunction, cognitive decline, and psychiatric symptoms due to the degeneration of neurons in the basal ganglia. It is caused by a genetic mutation in the HTT gene, leading to a typical onset in middle adulthood and requiring ongoing medical and supportive care.
