Adult onset primary torsion dystonia (AOPTD) is the most common form of dystonia and is
an autosomal dominant disorder with markedly reduced penetrance. Most AOPTD patients
therefore present as "sporadic" cases. Disordered sensory processing is found in AOPTD
patients; if also present in their unaffected relatives this abnormality may indicate nonmanifesting
gene carriage (an endophenotype).
