Seminars in Pediatric NeurologyAtaxia telangiectasia (AT) is a rare neurocutaneous syndrome that results from biallelic pathogenic variants in the ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene, named for its characteristic cerebellar ataxia in the early toddler years and variable oculocutaneous telangiectasias in the school age years. While its name only hints at neurologic and cutaneous
