Abstract
A 50-year-old male patient presented with a 10-year history of progressive cerebellar ataxia, multifocal dystonia with dystonic tremors, and oculomotor abnormalities including bilateral ptosis, slow saccades, and reduced range of ocular movements. There were no signs of cognitive impairment, parkinsonism, autonomic dysfunction, or muscle weakness, and the family history was unremarkable. This case presents the diagnostic approach to adult-onset cerebellar ataxia with dystonia and abnormal eye movements. In this era of genomic testing, our case highlights the role of clinical phenotyping and the utility of whole-exome sequencing in ataxias.
期刊介绍：
Neurology, the official journal of the American Academy of Neurology, aspires to be the premier peer-reviewed journal for clinical neurology research. Its mission is to publish exceptional peer-reviewed original research articles, editorials, and reviews to improve patient care, education, clinical research, and professionalism in neurology.
As the leading clinical neurology journal worldwide, Neurology targets physicians specializing in nervous system diseases and conditions. It aims to advance the field by presenting new basic and clinical research that influences neurological practice. The journal is a leading source of cutting-edge, peer-reviewed information for the neurology community worldwide. Editorial content includes Research, Clinical/Scientific Notes, Views, Historical Neurology, NeuroImages, Humanities, Letters, and position papers from the American Academy of Neurology. The online version is considered the definitive version, encompassing all available content.
Neurology is indexed in prestigious databases such as MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Biological Abstracts®, PsycINFO®, Current Contents®, Web of Science®, CrossRef, and Google Scholar.
