Tourette Syndrome - Psychiatry

Snapshot
- An 9-year-old boy is brought by his parents to the pediatrician due to concerns about his behavior in the past year. His teacher has complained in several parent-teacher conferences that their child has frequently disrupted quiet reading hours with episodes of grunting and getting out of his seat to jump. The parents note that these behaviors are similar to what they have observed at home as well. The boy had a period of 2 months where he did not show any of these behaviors, leading his parents to believe that he had moved past his "phase", but recently, the repetitive grunting and jumping behaviors have resurfaced.

Studies
- No further workup is necessary if typical indications of Tourette syndrome are observed in the patient's history
