Abstract
The differential diagnosis of chronic gait difficulties with falls in the elderly, due to neurological diseases, is discussed. The spectrum is quite wide and encompasses central and peripheral pathologies of the nervous system. For centrally induced gait difficulties auxiliary examinations correspond to those used in the evaluation of dementia.
