One of the particular characteristics of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the wide clinical variation as regards the treatment that can be found in the same patient. This occurs with specific treatment for PD, as well as with other drug groups that can make motor function worse. For this reason, the perioperative management of PD requires experience and above all appropriate planning. In this article, the peculiarities of PD and its treatment are reviewed, and a strategy is set out for the perioperative management of these patients. Resumen: Una de las características singulares de la enfermedad de Parkinson (EP) es la gran variabilidad clínica en relación con el tratamiento que puede acontecer en un mismo paciente. Esto sucede tanto con el tratamiento específico para la EP como con otra serie de fármacos que pueden empeorar la función motora. Por esta razón, el manejo perioperatorio de la EP requiere experiencia y sobre todo una planificación adecuada. En este artículo se revisan las peculiaridades de la EP y su tratamiento, y se plantea una estrategia para el perioperatorio de estos pacientes.
