Hereby we present 10 cases of SCA-12 with emphasis upon clinical presentations. Methods: Medical history, demographic data and detailed clinical presentation were studied. [mdsabstracts.org]

These advances have been associated with discoveries of new clinical disorders, in particular in the field of genetic ataxias, and the growing number of diseases presents a source of difficulty for clinicians during daily practice. [books.google.es]

The prognosis is bleak, with a gradual progression to disability and death within 10-20 years. Ref: Orr, H.T. et al. (1993). Expansion of an unstable CAG trinucleotide repeat in spinocerebellar ataxia type I. Nature Genet. 4, 221-26. [gpnotebook.co.uk]

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]
