Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the current situation of Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome (GTS). Method: Synthetic and documentary analytical methods were used, the documentary technique allowed the use of literature from 2016 to 2021 to obtain a contrast of knowledge and direct the investigation to the present. Results and conclusions: Regarding the diagnosis and treatment of GTS, it has been possible to identify an approach that is not always correct. An incorrect procedure may be due to cases with mild signs and symptoms, decreased severity of tics over the years, lack of professional clinical expertise, among others. SGT is related to a quantitative imbalance of excitatory and inhibitory interneurons, and with structural damage and growth of the striatum, there is also a generalized decrease in CNS neurotransmitters, mainly dopamine, as well as GABA, acetylcholine (ACh) and somatostatin.
