Atypical parkinsonism — also called Parkinson-plus syndromes — is an umbrella term for a group of progressive neurological conditions that share features with Parkinson's disease but involve broader brain damage, faster progression, and a poorer response to standard Parkinson's medications. The four main types are Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD), and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), each with its own pattern of movement, autonomic, cognitive, and behavioural symptoms. There is currently no cure or disease-modifying treatment, so care focuses on relieving symptoms, preventing complications such as falls and aspiration, and maintaining quality of life for as long as possible. Management is inherently multidisciplinary, combining specialist neurology input, targeted medications for movement and non-motor symptoms, and intensive rehabilitation therapies covering physiotherapy, speech, and occupational therapy.
A comprehensive neurological assessment to confirm the type of atypical parkinsonism followed by personalised medication management for movement, autonomic, and non-motor symptoms — the foundation of all care pathways.
