In this context, the patient presented in this paper was diagnosed. We present the case of a 20-year-old female patient with a first episode of a drug-induced psychotic syndrome but without neurological deficits. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Turkish

  So far, homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in CWF19L1 have been identified in two Turkish siblings and a Dutch girl, respectively, affected by cerebellar ataxia and ID. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Normal Hearing

  The clinical features common to the 16 males included profound mental retardation (100%), mutism despite apparently normal hearing (100%), grand mal epilepsy (87.5%), and limited life expectancy (68.8%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Psychomotor Regression

  Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by infantile onset and rapid progression of psychomotor regression and hypotonia evolving into spasticity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Postural Instability

  RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients showed larger postural instability in all experimental conditions. Postural sway increased with nystagmus in the eyes closed condition but not with the eyes open. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• MRI Scan showing Cerebellar Atrophy

  Brain MRI scan showed cerebellar atrophy. This case demonstrates a rare association of distal myopathy and cerebellar atrophy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CONCLUSION: The transplantation of in vitro cultured neural stem cell is a feasible and effective treatment for inherited CA, but the long term effectiveness need to be taken in consideration. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment Treatment Options: No treatment has been reported. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
