N2  - Tourette's Syndrome is developmental neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by stereotypic, non-rhythmic multiple motor and/or vocal tics. In rare cases, severe tics which can be life-threatening or self-mutilating may be observed in Tourette Syndrome. These types of cases that involve severe self-injurious behavior are called malignant Tourette's Syndrome. In this report, we present an adult case of Tourette Syndrome with vision loss as a result of recurrent and severe ocular self-mutilative tics.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
