Abstract
Basal ganglia dysfunction or lesions can result in movement disorders. This anatomical structure which is located in diencephalon and midbrain, consist of some nuclei which are interconnected together in a complex manner. Voluntary and involuntary motor functions would be controlled by basal ganglia which its increased output results in tremulous, rigid and slow movements in comparison with decreased output states which cause hyperkinetic movements.
