Autonomic disorder is not infrequent in patients with akinetic-rigid syndromes, including idiopathic Parkinson's disease. In the advanced stage of Parkinson's disease, abnormal blood pressure responses, such as orthostatic hypotension and abnormal circadian blood pressure rhythm, may occur. Few cases of reduced 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) accumulation in the heart or limbs of Parkinson's disease patients have been reported. However, whether reduced accumulation is caused by damage to the postganglionic sympathetic nervous system or by central autonomic failure corresponding to abnormalities in blood pressure regulation is unknown.
