Late-onset Huntington's disease is more common than has been generally appreciated and is associated with a wide range of psychiatric symptoms and syndromes. Geriatric psychiatrists have an important role to play in establishing the diagnosis and providing guidance to elderly patients and their families as they struggle with difficult management decisions. An illustrative case report and selective literature review are presented that highlight the genetic and clinical aspects of the condition.
