Few years ago, a new and simpler classification was proposed by Liston. The aim of this paper is to discuss three GIF patients with respect to this new classification. All three patients presented with hesitation to start walking and turning and their neurological examination revealed start and turn hesitation without any other abnormality. We classified our patients according to Liston's classification as ignition apraxia, which enabled us to approach the patients in a practical way. This classification helps to understand the underlying pathologies and combines clinical characteristics and pathophysiology. We reported our experience with pergolide in the treatment of patients suffering from primary GIF and underline the fact that more research is needed on the treatment of this condition.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessClassificationImagingPrimary gait ignition disorderFailureParkinsonismNeurosciences & neurologyAgedAngiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitorsAntiparkinson agentsAtrophyBrainFosinoprilGait apraxiaHumansMagnetic resonance imagingMaleNeurologic examinationNeuroprotective agentsNeuropsychological testsPergolideArticle0002678277000112-s2.0-6765099913233333730419484184Clinical neurologyNeurosciencesElectromyography; Brain Depth Stimulation; Movement DisordersAntiparkinson agentBenserazide plus levodopaBiperidenEntakaponFosinoprilLevodopaPergolideUnclassified drugAgedApraxiaArticleBrain atrophyBrain ischemiaBrain perfusionCase reportClinical featureDifferential diagnosisDisease classificationDisease courseDrug dose increaseDrug responseDrug treatment failureDrug withdrawalFollow upFrontal lobeGait disorderGait ignition disorderGliosisHumanHyperactivityLateral brain ventricleLimb movementMaleNeurologic examinationNuclear magnetic resonance imagingOutpatient careParkinson diseasePathophysiologySingle photon emission computer tomographyTendon reflexWalking difficultyWhite matter
