Clinical Characteristics of Parkinsonism in <scp>HTLV</scp>‐1‐Associated Myelopathy
In our cohort, 4.5% of HAM/TSP patients had concomitant parkinsonism, which was associated with a later age of onset and greater disease severity. The coexistence of parkinsonism in HAM/TSP may be underrecognized, and our findings expand the clinical spectrum of neurological disease with HTLV-1 infection.
