    <abstract locale="en_US">A case of Gille de la Tourett's syndrome is reported and discussed 111 the light of conflicting views on the aetiology of the condition. It is hypothesized that if Tourette's syndrome is to be considered as a sort of reaction against adaption to an unhealthy environment, this reaction and its continuity can be attributed to permanent eNS damage (Probably in the area of corpora striata) beginning in childhood. Treatment with haloperidol is suggested as a most effective method of symptomatic treatment.</abstract>
