Abstract

In 1872 beschreef George Huntington (figuur 1) hoe hij, zijn vader en grootvader, allen arts, generaties patiënten uit één familie zagen met eenzelfde soort ziektebeeld, waarvan de eerste verschijnselen zich op volwassen leeftijd openbaarden: ‘The movements gradually increase when muscles hitherto unaffected take on the spasmodic action, until every muscle in the body becomes affected (excepting the involuntary ones)… As the disease progresses the mind becomes more or less impaired, in many accounting to insanity, while in others mind and body gradually fail until death relieves them of their suffering’ (Huntington, 1872). Hij noemde de ziekte chorea, van het Griekse woord choreia (dans).
