Abstract Background Neuropsychological deficits have been observed in patients with cerebellar damage, but never thoroughly investigated in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS). Objectives The goal is the characterization of presence, severity, and profile of neuropsychological deficits in ARSACS using the cerebellar ...

Cerebellar ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 1: clinical and genetic studies [PDF]
Ataxia with ocular motor apraxia type 1 (AOA1) is an autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia (ARCA) associated with oculomotor apraxia, hypoalbuminaemia and hypercholesterolaemia. The gene APTX, which encodes aprataxin, has been identified recently.

Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...

Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay in Two Half‐Siblings
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SACS gene. We report the clinical, radiologic and neurophysiologic features of a pair of half‐siblings who presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy and upper motor neuron signs.
