Ann Indian Acad Neurol. 2013 Oct;16(4):703-4. doi: 10.4103/0972-2327.120457.

Abstract

Spinocerebellar ataxia 17 (SCA17) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disease clinically characterized by the presence of cerebellar ataxia in combination with variable neurological symptoms. Here we report a Chinese SCA17 family which proband's clinical manifestation was inconsistent with the neuroimage findings.

Keywords: Neuroimage; TATA-box binding protein gene; spinocerebellar ataxia 17; trinucleotide repeat.
