Abstract
Although the precise definition of multiple system atrophy has been di fficult, a recent consensus in diagnostic criteria for multiple system atrophy has been achieved. This should lead to progress in defining t he underlying pathophysiology of the neuroendocrine, autonomic and mot or deficits characteristic of multiple system atrophy. Hopefully, thes e developments will lead to effective treatment. (C) 1998 Lippincott-R aven Publishers.
