Clinical and functional characteristics, possible causes, and impact of chronic cough in patients with cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, and bilateral vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) [PDF]
AbstractCerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and bilateral vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is an hereditary autosomal recessive disease. Recent studies propose including chronic cough (CC) as a symptom of CANVAS. For 10 patients with CANVAS as genetically confirmed by biallelic expansion of the AAGG repeat motif (AAGGGexp) in intron 2 of ...

Update on Cerebellar Ataxia with Neuropathy and Bilateral Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome (CANVAS) [PDF]
AbstractThe syndrome of cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and bilateral vestibular areflexia (CANVAS) has emerged progressively during the last 30 years. It was first outlined by the neurootology/neurophysiology community in the vestibular areflexic patients, through the description of patients slowly developing late-onset cerebellar ataxia and ...

Cerebellar Ataxia With Neuropathy and Bilateral Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome [PDF]
Cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and bilateral vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) represents a widespread impairment of the various systems involved in balance: cerebellar, proprioceptive and vestibular1. The characteristic clinical sign of this syndrome is the impaired visually enhanced vestibulo-ocular reflex (VVOR), which represents combined ...

A common complaint in patients is chronic cough (CC), which may be refractory (RCC) or unexplained (UCC). Recent studies point, as a possible cause of CC, to the hereditary cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and bilateral vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS), with an estimated carrier prevalence of 1 in 20000.In patients with CC, determine the ...

An exceptional case of bilateral vestibular areflexia complicating acute otitis media [PDF]
Introduction: Bilateral vestibular areflexia is a rare pathological entity whose most frequent etiology is drug ototoxicity. We report an unusual case of bilateral vestibular areflexia complicating acute otitis media through which we raise the difficulties of diagnosis and therapeutic management of this pathology.
