    Huntington's chorea (HC) is a dominantly inherited, fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by movement disorders, cognitive decline and psychiatric manifestations.1 In the childhood-onset Huntington's disease, the most frequent symptoms at disease onset involve cognitive dysfunction and behavioral disorders. Parents usually seek medical attention for their children for delay in achieving developmental milestones, poor academic functioning, or evident regression in cognitive and language skills.2 In this study, the evaluation and treatment of a child with early-onset HC and bereavement from a family with three-generations affected with HC is presented.
