ABSTRACT
Tourette's disorder is a chronic refractory neuro-behavioral disease. New treatment strategies, such as repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), have been introduced recently. We report the effect of rTMS in a case with Tourette's disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a common combination in the clinical setting. This was a treatment-refractory patient, who had undergone 2 years of drug treatment and psychiatric consultation. We administered 10 sessions of rTMS for 10 days, resulting in a clear improvement in symptoms not only of Tourette's disorder but also of ADHD. Our observations indicate that rTMS may be effective in the treatment of Tourette's disorder with ADHD.
