In this review, we analyzed previously reported SCA15 phenotypes and present a novel SCA15 phenotype. [mayoclinic.pure.elsevier.com]

We also present genetic analyses for all subjects and longitudinal MRI data for one affected subject. [openaccess.city.ac.uk]

These reports and the present did not examine missense mutations. [nature.com]

All patients with SCA15 (n=10) presented with slowly progressive cerebellar ataxia and vermal cerebellar atrophy, while clinical and electrophysiological signs of extracerebellar affection were mild and more variable. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  CLINICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Spinocerebellar ataxia type 15 (SCA15) is characterized by slowly progressive gait and limb ataxia, often in combination with ataxic dysarthria, titubation, upper limb postural tremor, mild hyperreflexia, gaze-evoked nystagmus [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

There is no effective treatment known to modify disease progression. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

MANAGEMENT: Treatment of manifestations: Physical and occupational therapy; management of neurogenic dysphagia, if it occurs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

At the time of designation, no satisfactory methods were authorised in the EU for the treatment of spinocerebellar ataxia. Patients were mainly given supportive treatment aimed at easing the symptoms of the disease. [ema.europa.eu]

Treatment Treatment Options: No treatment is available. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Lithium treatment Start treatment and remain in hospital until the blood level of the drug is stabilized; continue treatment at home after hospital discharge. Admission 2 (2-4 days, 4 weeks after hospital discharge). [clinicaltrials.gov]

Prognosis Prognosis is generally good and life-shortening events do not usually occur. Some patients live beyond 80 years of age. [orpha.net]

SCA Type 3, also known as Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) is the most common (21%) of all SCAs and shares the same prognosis of 10-20 years. [spinocerebellarataxia.org]

Prognosis Spinocerebellar ataxias due to repeat expansion mutations usually become sick in middle age. In addition to ataxia, other neurological findings are often present depending on the variant of SCA. [verywell.com]

They most likely affected the clinical severity and also the cause of the poor prognosis. SCA31 is an autosomal dominant disorder with adult onset and a slowly progressive pure cerebellar ataxia. [karger.com]

Beginning with an examination of the cerebellar region, and then progressing to a fresh perspective on the clinical aspects of the various forms of ataxia, this handbook gives clinicians a state-of-the-art reference for the management of the many etiologies [books.google.com]

Etiology Genetic testing has shown that patients originally classified under SCA15 and SCA16 have the same subtype caused by a deletion in the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor 1 ITPR1 gene (3p26.1). [orpha.net]

Differential diagnoses revealed no signs of metabolic or inflammatory etiologies. The cerebellar symptoms gradually worsened. His SARA score was 21 at the age of 62 years. Fig. 1. Sagittal T1-weighted MRI showing cerebellar atrophy ( a, arrow). [karger.com]

Summary Epidemiology Prevalence is unknown. Fewer than 80 patients affected by the disease have been identified to date. Clinical description Age of onset is from 20 to 66 years (mean age = 39.6 years). [orpha.net]

Advances in genetics have led to the successful classification of over 20 forms of autosomal dominant and recessive cerebellar ataxias with variable phenotypes and have shed light on the underlying pathophysiology of many of these disorders. [journals.lww.com]
