Abstract

In Parkinson's disease (PD), pain is common, increases motor disability, and makes daily life unpleasant. Few patients reportedly have a low prevalence of abdominal pain. The pathophysiology of such abdominal pain has not been confirmed. We clinically studied patients with PD and persistent intolerable abdominal pain to determine the pathophysiology and effective therapy.
