Abstract:Functional gait disorder(FGD)is a common subtype of functional movement disorder(FMD),mainly characterized by instability,lameness and Parkinson's gait.The clinical manifestations of FGD are the same as those of other types of gait disorder,with the possibility of misdiagnosis.However,there are significant differences in the treatment principles between them,so clear diagnosis and accurate treatment are crucial to improve patients'symptoms and prognosis.This paper aims to systematically review the epidemiological characteristics,clinical manifestations,auxiliary examination,diagnosis and differential diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of FGD,in order to improve the understanding of clinicians.
